Language is an essential tool that we use in our daily life. In general, language is used as a tool to convey information. In using language, speakers must pay attention to the language used. Language users should do this to avoid or minimize errors in conveying information to listeners. This study aims to determine what types of speech acts and politeness strategies are used by pre-service teachers when teaching online classes. This research is expected to provide an overview of how speech acts and politeness strategies can affect educational activities. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. This research was conducted using two steps. The researcher's first step is to observe how preservice teachers use speech act and politeness strategies in online classes. Then the researcher will conduct interviews with research subjects or pre-service teachers to verify the data that has been observed. In conducting this research, the researcher used two theories as to the research foundation. The first theory is Searle's theory of speech act types and Brown and Levinson's theory of politeness strategies. The study found that if pre-service teachers use five types of speech acts, they are representative, directive, commissive, expressive, and directive. This study also found that pre-service teachers used more directive speech acts in teaching online classes than other types of speech acts. In addition to the use of speech acts, this study also found that pre-service teachers also use four politeness strategies in teaching online classes. The four types of politeness strategies are bald-onrecord, positive politeness, negative politeness, and off-record.

Practical English communication for EFL students is wholly based on their vocabulary. However, learner autonomy (LA) is critical for EFL students’ vocabulary acquisition. The purpose of this research is to find out the viewpoints of students regarding LA when it comes to acquiring English vocabulary. There were 100 students from the college majoring in English Language Education Department completed the closed questionnaire, and 7 students participated in semistructured interviews. The research established that while participants intellectually recognized the relevance of LA in learning English vocabulary, they demonstrated a lack of interest in LA in learning English vocabulary on an emotional and behavioral level. These findings may help explain how to improve English teaching and learning, particularly English vocabulary teaching, in the context of other comparable EFL and research.

The questionnaire was spread trough 100 tourism students of Ambarrukmo Tourism Institute Yogyakarta whose experience in doing internship period. The result found that one skill is above important than the others, some found that all of them are important, or they should be taught integrated. As the findings show, based on the students’ internship experience and the students’ perspective, those 4 English macro-skills are important but they have different frequency of use in the work place. Reading is the most frequently use since they often deal with short functional text, such as announcements and notice. Then it was followed by listening, writing, and speaking.

This study involves the discovery of verbal and non-verbal signs, which also describe the meaning of verbal and non-verbal signs found in the facial wash commercial advertisements. The data were taken from three printed facial wash advertisements. The data source has been taken from the internet. This study used the semiotic hypothesis provided by Saussure (1983: 65) to find out the verbal and non-verbal signs and the theoretical meaning provided by Barthes (1977) to find out the meaning of verbal and non-verbal signs in the facial wash ads. The analysis used a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze the results. As a result, the three facial wash ads show verbal and nonverbal signs that enable the company to market its product. In the verbal signs of the advertising, most of them contain denotative meaning and non-verbal signs which is in part, contain connotative meaning in certain advertisements. Two advertisements used a female as a model; one advertisement used a male as a model. This means that advertisers seek to gain public attention through the use of pretty females, popular figures and natural extracts or ingredients.

In the process of producing a writing in English, students certainly experience difficulties since English is a foreign language as experienced by students of STMIK STIKOM Indonesia. The preliminary observation showed that students have problem in all components of writing and tends to repeat the same mistakes. To overcome these problems, peer-correction techniques are implemented. This study was conducted to improve students’ writing skill using peer-correction, find the most affected component of writing and show students’ responses. There are three steps in this study including pretest, implementation of peer-correction and post-test. Pre-test was conducted at the beggining of the meeting with the aim of knowing the initial ability of students’ writing. The implementation of peer-correction was conducted in two cycles which each cycle including planning, implementation of action, observation and final reflection. Post test was conducted in each cycle to determine the ability of students’ writing after implementing peer-correction techniques. The result showed that the implementation of peer-correction techniques was able to improve students’ writing skill in terms of content, organization, vocabulary, language and mechanics in which content is the most affected.

Transition signals are the essential elements to achieve a well-structured text. The ideas in the text need to connect to each other. It will be difficult for the reader to understand the sequence if the ideas are simply just exposed by the writer without being related to each other. Students’ competency and ability in English academic writing overviewed from their competence in constructing sentences. Therefore, this research aimed to find out the use of transition signals and their accuracy in students’ community service report. The research used a descriptive quantitative method. The data were taken from students’ community service report written by the seventh semester English literature students of Foreign Languages Study Program of Universitas Mahasaraswati Denpasar. The finding of this research showed that the total number of transition signals used by the students in their community service report were 303 and classified into eight types of transition signals. Transition signals to introduce sequence and logically order ideas was mostly used and transition signals to emphasize ideas was least used by the students. From the whole types of transition signals, the average usage accuracy was above 60%.
