Abstract

Learning English as a second language requires students to learn English skills and components, including grammar. English Department students, as second language learners, are required to have good grammar acquisition. However, they usually make errors related to grammatical rules. This study was aimed to identify and analyze some grammatical problems experienced by the English Department Students, Politeknik Negeri Jember. The research result is hoped to be beneficial not only for language learning and teaching, but also for linguistics studies. The data were taken from the students who enrolled Upper Intermediate Grammar Course. The students’ written works were analyzed to find the problems. The first step was reading the works carefully to find grammatical problems. Having identified the problems, the researcher wrote notes about error kinds. She classified the errors into different categories based on their kinds. Then, the researcher analyzed the data and counted using percentage calculation. This study found that the students made the grammatical problems mostly on sentence constructions, numbers, and tenses. Hopefully, the findings would be beneficial for English teachers to get information about grammatical mistakes frequently made by the students, analyze causes of grammatical errors, and find solution to deal with the problems. Keywords: grammatical errors, sentence construction, numbers, tenses

The result of this research shows that Indonesian female workers are represented negatively in macrostructure through the discourse elements of headline and lead, in superstructure through the discourse elements of verbal reactions, main events, and background, and in microstructure through the discourse elements of level of specificity and degree of completeness, implications, presuppositions, and lexical style. They are represented as less educated, weak, and labile figures in the two articles of South China Morning Post.

It promotes students’ engagement in the learning process and also effects students’ output of their learning. It doesn’t prevail only on kindergarten students or primary students, but also on higher level such as college or university level. This research is aimed at determining the use of positive language to promote students’ writing competence in university level. The focus of the research is on writing competence where students face terribly writing difficulties. Engaged by the 3rd semester of 41 students of Basic Writing class in English Education Program, the research was measured statistically in a correlational analysis. Findings show that there is a significant correlation between the use of positive language and the result of the students’ writing competence. Most students show that they need positive language applied in their classrooms, so that they would fully participate in the learning process. Further, the students can reach their best results of their learning and gain their highest competence. Instead of vanish, language as a powerful teaching tool would be demanded by all levels of students for centuries.

Abstract

The Post Corona World has automatically brought about new conditions in language learning and instruction. The impacts and consequences of the pandemic on ELT would make part of the paper at hand. Some conceptual issues would accordingly be part and parcel of the propositions discussed throughout the initial part of this short paper. On the latter part, the paper discusses the viewpoints of some 49 participants sought through the final run of the modified questionnaire, among other means, developed and administered to the students of online classes to see how they feel about the rest of the process. Positive as well as negative points of online language instruction are categorically delineated to help enhance the instruction in prospect. The part which might have positively benefited most regarding the present circumstances is the material development domain by lowering the panic of the instructor in developing the material which might not only be much more appealing to the students but also help them enhance their language ability. Proposals for further research in several areas close the paper

Abstract

Abstract Ability to operate in English in today’s world is getting more important than ever before. Being capable of using English at workplace becomes influencing factors in fulfilling duties (Clement & Murugavel, 2018). For school teachers, they need to learn English to support careers and to improve personal and professional quality. In EFL context the teaching of English has employed various methods and strategies since long. However, success remains uncertain as these methods, even the latest one so called Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), have been unable to fulfil the needs of EFL learners. In response to this, Post Method is proposed to be an alternative. This paper is trying to examine the implementation of Brown’s 10 teaching Factors to a group of teachers learning English as a foreign language in accordance to the post Method pedagogical theory. Ten non-English teachers, 3 females and seven males, in one of the Indonesian private schools participated in this study. Interview, observation, and questionnaire were used as research instrument to collect data. The finding reveals that before the class commenced, most of the participants hardly understood teachers’ instruction, had poor confidence to speak, and were unable to speak or carry on simple exchange, quite similar to the level of Novice Low, the term coined from Brown (see Brown, 2007, p. 118). However, after 20 class meetings, the participants were able to understand and speak daily conversation, and their speaking confidence increased significantly. Such levels of proficiency very much resemble Novice High and Intermediate Low. This result, however, requires further investigation on the implementation and output of this new teaching concept in different and wider contexts of EFL learners. Key terms: EFL, CLT, Novice Low, Novice Mid, Novice High, Intermediate Low
