The aim of this research is to examine the effect of grammar mastery on listening skills. Does someone’s mastery of grammar affect his listening skills? If it does, to what extent? To answer these questions, data, in a form of test answers were collected from students taking the IELTS Preparatory Class. The Listening section in IELTS consists of several types of questions including gap completion, matching and multiple choice questions. The focus of this research is on the gap completion questions as these types of questions require test takers to write down words/phrases/numbers as the answers; therefore, grammar mistakes are noticeable if there are any. Many students find the gap completion section quite challenging as they have to complete the blanks with a word or phrase used in a conversation accurately in terms of both spelling and grammar. Consequently, being able to get the right word or phrase to answer the question is important. The researchers tried to examine whether knowing some grammar can improve test takers’ possibility of getting correct answers. The finding show that students’ mastery of grammar, to some extent, has an effect on their listening skills. Knowing some grammar can help students get grammatically correct answers. As grammar is not a learning focus in most IELTS Preparatory classes, it is recommended that teachers select what grammar points should be addressed, to a certain degree, in order to improve test takers’ listening comprehension and accuracy.

The common problem in English teaching to a group of Indonesian speakers is that the group has difficulty understanding to an English topic. Such as in tenses, traditionally most teachers have done their best to explain in simple English and provide numerous examples. There's nothing wrong with this approach. However, as many Indonesian-speaking English teachers probably know, it can be helpful to quickly explain the concept in Indonesian. Then the lesson can turn back to English. Consequently, it wastes time and not effective, a solution should be found. One of the solutions is the Google Translate where Google Translate offers the most powerful, free online translation tools available. This English teaching article focuses on using Google Translate to help out in difficult situations, as well as provide ideas on how to use Google Translate in class in lesson plans. This research tries to provide and share the strength and weaknesses of Google translate tool for writing learning. This research took some students from seventh semester of UNINDRA students as sample. The methodology used was descriptive. This research took time for about four (4) months. The findings of this research point out that many people are helped by the benefit of the Google Translate application. Despite the weaknesses of it, they believe that the results of the translation are accurate as long as they revise the translations manually.

Research on foreign language writing has shown that most EFL students faced some difficulties to produce a good composition in English. However, attention has mainly been directed to explore errors found on students’ written work. Little is known about what difficulties students have in the writing process. The present study investigates difficulties students faced in the six steps of writing process, namely choosing a topic, gathering ideas, outlining or organizing ideas, writing the first draft, reviewing the content and structure, as well as revising and making final correction. This study applied a qualitative method by using questionnaire and interview to collect the data. The subjects were English Language Education students who were taking an Essay Writing course in the third semester. The findings indicate that students face difficulties in all steps of essay writing process. Among those six steps, outlining and gathering ideas are claimed as the most effortful steps students have to pass. Writing the first draft and revising are the next two steps considered as challenging. Lastly, choosing a topic and reviewing content and structure are also demanding for small part of students. The difficulties students have and suggestions they propose are presented in this study. Those could be a basis for doing some improvements at institutional as well as individual level.

The point of this study is planned to research the ability of understudies in performing public speaking, in light of their personality: extrovert and introvert. This study utilized a qualitative approach where the scientist depicted the introvert and extrovert personalities of individual character of EFL students talking execution. The participants were 203 understudies from five classes of English. The data collection technique used was semi-structured. The data collected during this study was then examined using two different techniques: statistical counting for quantitative information about the introvert and extrovert traits of the students and analysis for qualitative information about the effectiveness of their public speaking. The findings show that on average, extrovert students’ accomplishments in talking are better than introverts, but not significant, however not huge. The thing that matters is simply 0.02 points among 0 to 5 in scoring. Students who are introverts or extroverts have different learning methods; introverts tend to study by themselves, while extroverts enjoy interacting with others and studying in groups.

While task-based language teaching (TBLT) is among the most preferred methods for teaching foreign languages, it has not received enough study to be empirically verified in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. Few studies have looked into instructors' reactions towards TBLT in the setting of Indonesian college English. This study contributes to closing the gap by studying EFL teachers' perspectives of TBLT and evaluating the present use of TBLT in online learning. Data from classroom observations, interviews, and course materials were triangulated to give a descriptive synthesis of teacher participants' experiences with TBLT instruction. The data analysis indicated that the teacher displayed proactive and reactive agencies in overcoming the conflicts in the instructional activity system via teaching as both learning and adaptation. A variety of mediational elements were revealed to account for their agency. In order to influence teachers' adoption of task-based language teaching, the study emphasizes the significance of teachers' shared attitudes regarding the usefulness of TBLT, curricular change, and institutional support. The article finishes with a discussion of the practical implications of the findings of this small-scale study on how to facilitate successful application of TBLT during emergency remote teaching in Indonesia.

The research examines how Indonesian non-native English-speaking teachers (NNESTs) perceive various English accents including Indonesian English speakers around them and their English accents as well in terms of native or non-native viewed from the lens of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF). In addition, the research also investigates how they perceive pronunciation identity reflected in their English accents. Qualitative methods were employed by using written online interviews. The participants consisted of five (5) Indonesian NNESTs whose English teaching experiences range from 10 to 32 years in universities in Jakarta. They were asked about their perception of accents and their colleagues’ accents and EFL practice in Indonesian English language teaching, especially in their environment where English is expected as the lingua franca of communication. The data were collected using written semi-structured interviews through email and speaking tests recorded through WhatsApp and analyzed using interpretivism adapted from the approach of phenomenology in teaching English. The result reveals their acceptance of being identified as belonging to a particular ethnicity or nationality due to salient characteristics of their accents as part of pronunciation identity. In addition, the result also shows acceptance of varied accents worldwide, yet they also unconsciously show their preference for American and British accents if they could choose to do so.

This study investigates the employment of teachers questioning strategies in Speaking classes in an EFL setting. This study intends to find out how the teachers employ those questioning strategies as well as to investigate whether the type of questioning strategies and the way teachers apply those types of questioning strategies assist learners in engaging in classroom interaction. The participants were teachers teaching Speaking classes and learners attending the classes. This study employed descriptive qualitative research using videotaped class observations and transcription as the techniques of data collection. The teachers’ questioning strategies and learners’ responses are highlighted and analyzed. The referential and follow-up questions were applied in the while-speaking stage to gain information from the learners and the class. The questions were addressed to the class and individuals to assist learners getting involved in the interaction. The display and follow-up questions were addressed more in a post-speaking stage, used for an assessment for today’s lesson. The results reveal that teachers mostly use display questions in the pre-speaking stage to introduce the new lesson, set the class mood, as the motivating strategies, and attract the class’s attention to the new lesson. The type of questions employed by the teachers are effective to make the learners involved in classroom interaction must be based on the needs and time. The way teachers address questions should be started in the class, in small groups, and with individuals. Teacher wait-time is one of the facilities for teachers are expected to provide learners as a learning opportunity.

The research aims to analyze the use of chaining activity on teaching writing of affixes on legal document. Language is used to communicate each other, both written and spoken, to ease the audiences so it can be understood when the first time they read or hear it. On legal document, it should be simplified in written, used appropriate words and sentences structures, and presented clearly and logically. Language is also related to writing, of Morphology and Syntax that is in line with affixes. The right form of writing in Morphosyntax on legal document can ease both the readers and hearers when they have legal problems, so the appropriate actions can be taken. Morphosyntax is the combination of Morphology and Syntax. Morphosyntax studies about how words are formed and combined with structures into a good sentence. The method used was qualitative method to give the understanding about chaining the words in improving the writing skill and connecting the affixes to the base word especially in English legal document. The legal document was used as the research instrument. The participants of the research were the 1st semester of accounting students at University of Bina Sarana Informatika. The result of the research is there are some affixes, as the Morphology aspects, commonly used on the legal document, the affixes are: -ance, -al, -ence, -er, -ing, -ment, -or, etc. For Syntax aspects, there are grammar, noun, verb, adjective, adverb and preposition found on the legal document.
