Language plays a crucial role in communication. English is regarded as a foreign language and is a required subject, particularly in Indonesian secondary schools. Every citizen spoke at least two languages, namely their mother tongue or regional language (B1) and Indonesian (B2). Despite the fact that they also use mother tongue or regional language in daily life to express respect and familiarity with interlocutors from the same group, Indonesian is typically used in both formal and informal contexts. This means that Indonesian students have limited exposure to English because English is only used in formal contexts and is rarely used outside the classroom. In language classrooms, code-switching is a strategy used to facilitate conversation. However, code-switching and code-mixing can help students improve their English speaking skills. The purpose of this study was to investigate how teachers and students implement code switching or mixing in EFL classrooms. This research method employs qualitative research by describing and identifying patterns directly associated with particular phenomena. The outcome demonstrated that code switching or code mixing in EFL classrooms can be an effective educational strategy.

Being taught reading is vital to fulfilling students' needs for academic success. To reach that requirement, teachers should teach reading comprehension in an entertaining way through technology. Kahoot! is one of the online applications used for teaching English with positive responses from students. This research project was done in one public high school in Banjarmasin, Indonesia. One hundred five students divided into six classes participated as study subjects. The research used a mixed-method approach, first analyzing quantitative data from a survey and qualitative data to give better insight into teacher and students' perceptions of their narratives. A framework for a lesson has been presented in this study, where it can be modified and implemented in lessons. The said framework used Kahoot! in teaching narrative text and was favored by the teacher. Both from the reflection of the teacher and students, Kahoot! gave students an enjoyable way to learn the narrative text, as well as giving more chances for them to decrease their anxiety and increase their motivation to learn English. Although the teacher found many obstacles to implementing Kahoot! in his teaching practice, at the end of the day, he considered his students active and excited to learn narrative text and plans to use Kahoot! for his future classes. The implication of this study was to encourage teachers to reflect on their students' feelings and level of engagement. Future studies can focus on the use of Kahoot! for another type of text or even for other skills.
