In one classroom, students bring various motivations to learn English. However, not all motivations directly connect to their engagement in class. Since students' engagement affects their learning and long-term success, it plays a significant role in Second Language Acquisition. Since March 2020, due to COVID-19 Indonesian students and schools have had to go through massive learning changes without being much prepared. This research aims to inquire what factors are influencing the university students' engagement during online learning and study to what extent Teacher-Student Relationship (TSR) influence the engagement of university students during online learning using a qualitative case study method to stress how positive TSR is essential to get through this challenging time. To collect data, the researchers surveyed using the Student Instructor-Relationship Scale (SIRS). They also used open-ended questions, video recordings containing the reflections from 35 students, and interviews from students and teachers. Students' assessments were evaluated to analyze the relationship between TSR and their engagement and performance in class. Results showed that Indonesian students were facing various challenges. It turned out that 13 students who had personal check-ins with the teacher had a positive perception toward the teacher; their engagement was slightly better. Their instructor anxiety was lower than the whole class average. A variety of pedagogical implications are suggested to support students in overcoming the challenges they face, especially during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

With its current developments, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has started to influence how teachers teach and how students learn, including the ones in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. However, there have been debates on whether AI could be beneficial to students’ learning or not. One way to see this issue is from the perspectives of the students. Hence, this study aimed at investigating how students perceive the use of AI in their learning. The data was collected through semi-structured interviews with 8 EFL students in a university in Indonesia who had the experience with the use of an AI app in their writing class. The results showed that the students had positive perceptions towards the use of the AI app. The students enjoyed the learning, and the AI app helped the students in their writing. Moreover, this study also suggests that there are also several things to consider when integrating AI in writing classes.

Speaking skill is an English language competence that is very important for effective communication either in educational or professional environment. This skill is also required by students of Nursing Study Program to support their academic and professional development. However, students still have limited exposure to English materials related to their field of science. Active English for Nursing (AFORN) application, therefore, it was elaborated to support the students’ needs. AFORN is an Android-based application for learning English speaking skills as complementary learning media that are accessible at anytime and anywhere. The objective of this study was to observe how AFORN helped students enhance their speaking skills. This was an Action Research project. The subjects of this study were the second-semester students of Nursing Study Program. The data were collected by doing observation, interview, and tests. There were four stages in this study, namely planning, action, observation, and reflection. The focus of the Action stages was implementing AFORN as an m-learning medium to help students learn English based on their own pace. The result of this study shows that there was an improvement of students’ speaking skills in terms of vocabulary, grammar, language expressions, and pronunciations. Besides the students became more motivated to learn English after using the alternative learning medium i.e. AFORN which could be flexibly accessed through their Android-based gadgets.

In this digital era, transforming the traditional classroom to the online environment becomes urgent, particularly during the COVID 19 pandemic. E-learning becomes an alternative platform for online learning as it provides space for the teacher to open, design, and manage a class. Designing digital material becomes a prerequisite in this circumstance, and it requires teachers’ competence in using technology, including digital literacy. This competence will cultivate teachers’ self-efficacy, which is an essential factor in the success of E-learning implementation; therefore, this study investigates teachers’ self-efficacy on designing digital material uploaded in E-learning. This study explores 20 vocational school teachers’ experience in using E-learning by investigating what digital material and E-learning are perceived by the teachers and how they design and implement it in the E-learning. The teachers’ experience is captured through questionnaires, interviews and class observation then the data are analysed under Efficacy theory. The result shows that the teachers’ self-efficacy, in general, is at a medium level, and their ICT knowledge and competence influence their ability in designing digital material and use it in E-learning. Those with adequate knowledge and competency pose a high self-efficacy, while those with less knowledge and skill, their selfefficacy in designing is considered moderate. Therefore, intensive teacher training in digitalizing material is urgent to boost the teachers’ self-efficacy and ICT competence to gain success and benefits from E-learning.

TOEFL purposes have developed in recent years, not only for educational needs but also for other needs, such as; job applicant requirements. Meanwhile, the examinee still considers TOEFL as a difficult test. Reading Comprehension appears as one of the sections in TOEFL. As a result of this phenomenon, the goal of this study was to determine how intrinsic analysis theory improved student reading comprehension scores. The method used in this research was the action research method. The research stages started from pre-test, problems identification, treatment implementation, post-test, findings evaluation, and conclusion. The tests were delivered through Google Form and Google Classroom. In addition, the treatment implementation was using Zoom conference. There are 84 students tested in this research. The students form two groups. Group A is doing a reading comprehension test with a narrative genre, meanwhile group B with a descriptive genre. There is a rising in group A average score, from 53 in the pre-test to 83 in the posttest. Besides, group B average score rises from 68 to 92. Therefore, we suggest applying intrinsic analysis in solving the reading comprehension test. However, it needs another research that interacts with student cognitive thinking when taking the reading comprehension test for TOEFL.

In language learning, the learners need to acquire the knowledge of some skills such as speaking, writing, listening, and reading. Among the four skills, speaking is said to be a very important skill. It is a productive skill that people use for communication and used by the language learner more frequently in their activities. During this covid-19 situation, the teaching and learning process has changed from tradition classrooms into virtual classrooms. The teacher’s creativity in using learning media should be optimized to get all the students engaged in the learning process. This paper aimed to analyze students’ speaking ability on YouTube based video project in online speaking class during covid19 pandemic. The participants of this study were the third year of English Department students of Universitas Asahan 2019/2020 academic year and 19 students were chosen as the samples. This study belongs to descriptive research. The researcher took the sample by using purposive sampling. The data came from the students’ final assignment in speaking class in form of short drama. The students’ speaking performance videos were used for measuring the students’ speaking ability. Four videos had been analyzed based on Harris in Depdiknas proficiency descriptions. It consists of pronunciation, structure, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension. Having regard to the conclusions, this study showed that the majority of students’ speaking ability was in good level (75,16%). However, mastering grammar and fluency became the most influencing factors in improving their ability in speaking based on the data gathered. It means that by uploading their video project on YouTube can be more excellent if the students mastering all aspects of speaking while doing conversation in English, so that their speaking may improve.
