This research investigated English language needs for new students majoring in non-English who are taking courses in the Foreign Language Center program. This research approach used qualitative with descriptive methods. The subjects in this research were new students majoring in non-English. The data in this research was obtained through two stages, namely Focus Group Discussion (FGD) involving six students who were representatives from each study program; Indonesian Language Tadris, Mathematics Tadris, Islamic Religious Education, Sharia Economic Law, Ahwal Al-Shakhsyiyyah, and Islamic Teaching Communication, and distribution of questionnaires filled in by 127 students. Here the researcher found that most students (75%) who took part in the Foreign Language Center (English) program wanted to master all English language skills; listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Apart from that, the English components they need are vocabulary and grammar with a percentage (78%). Furthermore, regarding the abilities and components of English, students want the lecturer's strategy used in the learning process to be text-based teaching. Therefore, researchers provide recommendations so that learning is implemented using relevant methods such as the Grammar Translation Method (GTM), Direct Method (DM), Audio Lingual Method (ALM), and Communicative Language Teaching Method (CLT).

Online learning in the Covid-19 pandemic era has been running for almost two years. Students are spending their time mostly at home, and parents have taken over more tasks as teachers for their children, including English learning. This study aims to investigate the kinds of parents’ attention on students' English online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic era and their influence on the students’ discipline during learning at home. A case study research design was employed. The respondents were the parents of fourth-grade students in SD Muhammadiyah Karangwaru, Yogyakarta. The data were collected through deep online interviews, online class observation, and field notes. Then, the data were analyzed by using the descriptive qualitative method that includes data collection, data display, data reduction, and conclusion (Miles, Huberman, Saldana, 2014). The results show that there were four kinds of attention given by parents to the students while having English online learning, namely: 1) giving full affection to students, 2) guiding and assisting students in learning, 3) giving rewards for motivation, and 4) fulfilling students’ learning facilities. Meanwhile, the attention created good discipline for the students, i.e., writing new English vocabularies, completing and submitting assignments, and sharing time to study and to play.

This study aims to analyze the role of teachers and parents in the success of teaching initial writing for second grade of elementary school students after doing online learning activities due to the covid-19 outbreak. This research was studied using a qualitative research method with a case study design. This research is based on primary data, namely second grade students and teachers, secondary data are field teachers who teach in second grade and vice principals of curriculum areas. Data collection technique used is interview (in-depth interview), observation and documentation. The data analysis technique used is Milles and Huberman which consists of data reduction, data presentation, and data verification. Data credibility was also tested by means of triangulation of data sources. The research findings reveal that the first thing that needs to be understood in preparation for initial writing is students' motor readiness by continuing to practice writing pens, such as making straight lines, curves, etc. Teacher and parent assistance is optimized through WhatsApp Group by sharing educational videos about learning to write early. Appropriate teaching also gets good results with the ability of second grade of elementary school students to write meaningful and legible letters.
