“…Because only analysis based on the discovered facts was done in this study, the researcher mainly focused on describing data on students reading comprehension challenges. In Creswell, Imandari, Suhartono, Wijaya (2015), "To explore this issue from the perspective of distance education students." Therefore, the writer reached a qualitative research in which the writer collected data, examined it, and came to a conclusion to describe what the difficulties of English education students in a university in Indonesia reading subject were so that they got low scores.…”

This study investigates the reading difficulties faced by EFL learners and proposes possible solutions for English Education students in an Indonesian university. Reading comprehension is a vital component of the English education curriculum, as it enables students to comprehend and analyze texts effectively. To conduct this study, a descriptive strategy was employed in combination with a qualitative approach. The questionnaire was designed to identify common challenges encountered by students, including difficulties in text translation, enhancing motivation, and the teaching methods employed by instructors. Data was collected through interview sessions, questionnaire responses, and documentation. The findings revealed that students predominantly struggled with sentence comprehension. By addressing these issues and fostering a desire to read, related challenges such as limited vocabulary, grammar proficiency, and sentence interpretation can be effectively tackled. Moreover, some students faced difficulties arising from inadequate teaching methods employed by their instructors. Consequently, this study concludes that students' reading difficulties primarily revolve around understanding the text itself, which in turn leads to other complications such as grammar mastery, vocabulary limitations, and text translation problems. These factors emerge from both students themselves and the instructional approaches adopted by their teachers.

“…They feel difficult to understand and pronounce each sentence. Recognizing the cognitive demands, Nugraha, ( 2013) has stated that educators may consider implementing strategies to gradually increase complexity, providing additional support for learners to build cognitive skills over time (Hutahaean et al, 2023;Rahayu, 2021).…”

“…Nugraha, (2013) has asserted that translation promotes cross-cultural awareness and communication. By engaging with different languages, young learners gain insights into diverse cultures, fostering a more inclusive worldview (Arono & Nadrah, 2019;Hutahaean et al, 2023;Rahayu, 2021). This skill becomes increasingly valuable in our interconnected global society (Phan et al, 2022;Simanjuntak, 2019).…”

“…This fosters language development in a contextually rich manner (Rahayu, 2021). On the other hand, implement peer collaboration by organizing group translation projects (Hutahaean et al, 2023). This allows young learners to support each other, share ideas, and learn collaboratively, reducing the cognitive load on individual students (Fransiska & Arifin, 2021;Nur Najibah Koman et al, 2019;Simanjuntak, 2019).…”

This case study explores strategies for fostering translation skills in young learners at MI Miftahul Huda Ngadireso, Malang, Indonesia. It delves into the importance of language acquisition during the early stages of education and examines specific methodologies used to enhance translation abilities. The study assesses the impact of interactive and immersive approaches on linguistic development, providing insights into effective pedagogical practices for nurturing basic translational proficiency in young language learners. This study indicates that Shobahul Lughah (morning language learning) effectively improves students’ translating skills. Furthermore, the study emphasises the value of constant practice and exposure to varied language inputs in developing fluency and accuracy in translation tasks. Moreover, the study emphasises the importance of taking a balanced approach to language training that includes both explicit and implicit learning possibilities. While explicit education offers learners systematic guidance and unambiguous explanations of linguistic topics, implicit learning experiences promote inquiry, discovery, and subconscious internalisation of language patterns and conventions. Finally, by embracing novel pedagogical approaches and establishing a supportive learning community, educators may help young students become efficient interpreters and communicators in an increasingly interconnected global world.
