Migrant women, especially married migrant women, are perhaps one of the least discussed groups in the field of second language acquisition. To date, there have been limited studies on this group of learners. This is unfortunate because our inability to understand this group would restrict us from catering to their language learning needs. Because of this reason, we decided to conduct a systematic review to understand what the literature has revealed about their investment in language learning and how gender influences their decision to learn a second language. An in-depth review of 24 empirical studies published from 1995 to 2021 reveals that the new living conditions affect their self-positioning in family and society, gendered identities play a critical role in making a woman invest or not to invest in learning a second language, and gendered identities relevant to their family roles (e.g. being a mother or a wife) appear to be the most common and powerful factors in deciding their investment in learning a second language.Keywords: migrant women, language learning, motivation, investment

This research was aimed to find the effectiveness of FIVES strategy in teaching reading comprehension. This research was conducted by applying experimental research design. The sample was two classes with total number of 60 students taken out of the total population by applying cluster random sampling technique. One class as the experimental group was taught by applying FIVES strategy and the other class as the control group was taught by conventional strategy. The instrument for collecting the data was reading text with 20 items of multiple choices test. The data were analyzed by using t-test formula. Data analysis resulted that t-observed value was higher than t-table value ( > 2.000) at level of significance 0.05 with the degree of freedom (df) 58. Since t-observed value was higher than t-table value, it means Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. Thus, the FIVES strategy significantly affected students’ reading comprehension. It is recommended for English teachers to apply the FIVES strategy to teach reading comprehension.

This paper investigates the illocutionary acts used by Merida as the main character in Brave movie published by Walt Disney Pictures. In this paper, the problem to be solved: (1) What types of illocutionary acts are used by the main character in the Brave movie? (2) What types of illocutionary acts are dominantly used by the main character in the Brave Movie? This paper uses the qualitative descriptive approach to describe and analyze the illocutionary utterances uttered by the main character in that movie. This paper focused on the illocutionary acts proposed by Searle (1979). There are five types of illocutionary acts found in this paper: representative, directive, expressive, commissive, and declarative. This paper found 58 utterances produced by Merida, which consisted of illocutionary acts. There are thirty-two (32 times or 55.2%) representative acts, five (5 times or 8.6%) expressive, sixteen (16 times or 27.6%) directive, four (4 times or 6.9%) commissive, and the least frequently used is the declarative illocution which appears in only one (1 time or 1.7%) utterance.
