Abstract

This community service program was conducted at Ban Bangoisinae School, Yala, Thailand, to address primary students limited English vocabulary mastery and low confidence in basic oral communication. Preliminary observations indicated that many fourth-grade students were reluctant to use English and experienced difficulties in constructing simple sentences. To address these challenges, a fun learning approach was implemented through interactive classroom instruction, complemented by a supplementary program entitled One Word One Sentence Weekly Vocabulary. The program emphasized student centered and enjoyable learning activities, including games, flashcards, repetition, and guided sentence construction. The activities were implemented over a two-month period comprising 26 instructional sessions. The findings demonstrate notable improvements in student engagement, vocabulary retention, and confidence. Approximately 70% of students in class 4/1 and 75% of students in class 4/2 actively participated in learning activities and successfully completed assigned tasks. Moreover, more than 80% of students were able to recall and appropriately use newly introduced vocabulary. These results suggest that the fun learning approach is effective in enhancing motivation, basic English competence, and learner confidence within an international community service context.

Abstract

This community service study investigates the challenges of low student participation, limited vocabulary mastery, and lack of confidence among learners at Safira English Course in Situbondo. Preliminary observations indicate that conventional instructional practices, primarily based on memorization and repetitive exercises, have not effectively fostered communicative competence or active engagement. To address these issues, an innovative pedagogical intervention integrating vocabulary songs and game-based learning was implemented. The program was conducted through systematic stages, including needs analysis, instructional design, classroom implementation, and continuous evaluation over two weeks. The intervention combined auditory and kinesthetic learning through song-based repetition and interactive activities such as Fastest Finger and Snake Word. The findings reveal a marked improvement in students’ engagement, vocabulary retention, and speaking confidence. Learners demonstrated increased participation, better recall of lexical items, and greater willingness to communicate in English. These results suggest that multimodal and student-centered approaches significantly enhance the effectiveness of English language instruction. It is concluded that the integration of songs and educational games provides a sustainable and impactful strategy for improving learning outcomes in non-formal EFL contexts
