Abstract

English speaking fluency plays a crucial role in supporting students’ academic achievement and global employability. However, many learners continue to struggle with spoken English despite years of formal instruction. This study investigates key factors influencing speaking fluency among university students in the Indonesian higher education context, focusing on personal attributes, cultural and social influences, and pedagogical practices. A mixed-methods approach was used, with data collected through questionnaires from 105 students and semi-structured interviews with 10 participants. The findings indicate that psychological barriers, such as anxiety and lack of confidence, are significant obstacles to speaking fluency. Additionally, limited exposure to authentic English practice and teacher-centered pedagogical approaches contribute to the challenges faced by students. However, the study also highlights positive factors that enhance fluency, such as interactive teaching strategies, vocabulary development, and the provision of constructive feedback. These elements were found to significantly improve students’ fluency and boost their confidence in speaking. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the importance of peer interaction, supportive learning environments, and the integration of technological tools in promoting speaking proficiency. The results suggest that these factors play a critical role in developing students’ communicative competence. Based on these findings, the study offers practical recommendations for educators and policymakers, emphasizing the need for tailored interventions to address students’ specific challenges and improve their English speaking skills in the context of Indonesian higher education. Keywords: speaking fluency, psychological barriers, interactive teaching, higher education, language learning strategies.

Abstract

Abstract: English language literacy is essential for pre-service English teachers, as it shapes their academic performance, professional identity, and future classroom practices. However, many pre-service teachers in Indonesia continue to encounter challenges in developing strong English literacy skills due to motivational, contextual, and experiential constraints. Guided by Self-Determination Theory, which emphasizes the psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, this study examined the factors influencing pre-service EFL teachers’ motivation to develop their English literacies and how these factors shape their learning trajectories. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and document analysis with two pre-service teachers enrolled in an English Education program in Yogyakarta. The findings reveal six key motivational factors: relatedness through social and environmental support, intrinsic motivation through interest in English, autonomy supported by digital technology and learning preferences, extrinsic motivation and goal orientation, and competence development through teaching experience. These factors interact to influence how pre-service teachers engage with literacy practices and internalize motivation for long-term development. The study highlights the central role of fulfilling psychological needs in sustaining literacy motivation and points out the importance of supportive learning environments, digital literacy integration, and meaningful teaching opportunities. Implications for teacher education programs include designing motivation-enhancing practices that foster positive attitudes and improve English literacy outcomes among future teachers.

Abstract

This study investigates the natures of teacher leadership in early childhood education, specifically focusing on English reading class. Through questionnaires, the research explores the connections among teacher leadership perspectives, practices, and identity. The findings verify the significance of teacher leadership perspectives in shaping educators' beliefs about their role in improving student learning performance. Teachers possessing a strong sense of leadership are more likely to create literacy-rich environments, engage in collaborative practices, and support their students' needs. In addition, effective teacher leadership practices, such as involving parents in supporting children's reading development and utilizing innovative instructional strategies, play a crucial role in enhancing student outcomes. The results also reveal the relationship between teacher leadership perspectives, practices, and identity indicating that positive perspectives and effective practices contribute to the development of a strong teacher leadership identity. Nurturing both perspectives and practices allows educators to develop a sense of agency and empowerment. By prioritizing the development of teacher leadership, educational institutions can create more supportive and innovative learning environments. Professional development programs should be designed to equip teachers with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary to assume leadership roles. Additionally, school leaders should foster a culture that values and supports teacher leadership. In conclusion, this study offers valuable insights into the complexities of teacher leadership in early childhood English education. By understanding the connectedness between perspectives, practices, and identity, educators can enhance their leadership capacity and ultimately improve student learning outcomes.
