This study explores the impact of practicing English speaking with native speakers on the speaking fluency and confidence of EFL students at E-Fun Institute, Central Java. Implementing a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, the study involved 30 students from the intermediate speaking class, divided into an experimental group and a control group. Over four weeks, the experimental group participated in weekly 45-minute conversation sessions with native English speakers, while the control group engaged in peer-based speaking practice using conventional classroom methods. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to measure studentsÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ speaking fluency and self-confidence using standardized rubrics and Likert-scale questionnaires. Data were analyzed using SPSS 26, including descriptive statistics, paired samples t-tests, and independent samples t-tests. The findings showed a statistically significant improvement in both fluency and confidence among the experimental group compared to the control group. These results support the view that native speaker interaction provides valuable linguistic input, lowers learnersÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ affective filters, and enhances motivation. The study concludes that integrating native speaker-based speaking practice is an effective instructional strategy to improve oral communication skills in EFL contexts, especially within non-formal educational institutions.

Using a qualitative approach, this study analyzed commitment and communication as parts of faithfulness through the lens of Abrams' (1979) objective theory. The data, derived from the film, highlighted two key aspects of faithfulness; commitment and communication both connected to God and spouse. These elements collectively illustrated faithfulness as a deliberate choice rather than an emotional reaction. Faithfulness to God was portrayed as unwavering trust and dependence on divine guidance, even in times of suffering. Likewise, faithfulness in human relationships mirrored this devotion through patience, trust, and perseverance. The film underscored that true faithfulness was not about seeking immediate answers but about surrendering to a higher plan. Ultimately, I Still Believe demonstrated that faithfulness strengthened both spiritual and personal bonds, shaping character and resilience in the face of adversity.

The scope of this research is specifically limited to examining the personality and feelings of Elsa, who serves as the central figure in the animated movie Frozen. While undertaking the analysis for this academic work, the writer concentrates exclusively on the research questions previously defined. The study gives prominence to Jennifer Lee's leading character, Elsa, with an emphasis on examining her nature and the emotions she undergoes. The selected method for this investigation is qualitative research, due to the fact that the gathered information exists as quotations and explanations. The details analysed in this research were extracted from the film Frozen by Jennifer Lee, which served as the primary material, and were supplemented with supporting information obtained from applicable materials like books, articles, and other resources that cover emotional experiences, functioning as supporting sources. The research identified Elsa's persona as being a powerful and inward-focused individual. This particular persona has a significant influence on the advancement of the plot and the evolution of other figures. Additionally, Elsa tends to respond to issues by steering clear, paying them no mind, and keeping her thoughts and feelings locked up inside, creating difficulties in controlling her emotional state. Subsequently, having established this portrayal, the aim of the author's study is to recognize and thoroughly understand the emotions represented by Elsa's character within the animated movie Frozen. Drawing on the findings, the writer reached the conclusion that the primary emotions that are apparent within her experience are positive emotions such as joy and contentment, as well as negative emotions such as dread, rage, and sorrow. Notably, Elsa's surrounding environment triggers each one of these feelings.
