Abstract

This community service activity aims to improve the basic English communication skills of the community in Tenjolaya Village, Rancabali District, Bandung Regency, in supporting the development of a nature- and culture-based tourism village. The method used is an interactive, practice-based training with a participatory approach, which includes material delivery, conversation simulations (role-play), and evaluation through pre-test and post-test. The main material focuses on basic skills in greeting and welcoming tourists, self-introduction, and providing simple information related to tourism services. The results show an improvement in participants’ understanding and communication skills, as indicated by higher post-test scores compared to pre-test results, as well as increased confidence in conversational practice. The implementation of the activity ran well and smoothly without significant obstacles, with a high level of participant engagement. However, the limited duration of the training, which was conducted in only one day, became a constraint in deepening the material. Therefore, a continuous follow-up training program is needed to strengthen participants’ competencies. Overall, this activity makes a positive contribution to enhancing human resource capacity and supports the development of Tenjolaya Village as a competitive and sustainable tourism village.
