“…She also consciously attributed her low level of anxiety to the fact that she has always been strongly interested in languages, as well as to the support that she has received from her native-speaker colleagues and peers. This particular revelation shows an agreement with the results of the study conducted by Wijaya (2023), which stated that the existence of an enjoyable L2 learning circumstance is believed to help alleviate anxiety in foreign language learning.…”

Polyglots typically have specific learning strategies to learn new languages. This study aims to tap into the learning strategies employed by a female Indonesian who speaks six languages, namely Javanese, Minang, Malay, Indonesian, English, and Russian, and is currently learning three additional languages, namely French, Spanish, and Arabic. This case study used an interview to gain a deeper understanding of the learning strategies. The interview revealed that the participant used direct and indirect strategies in a balanced proportion. Further discussion also revealed that she used cognitive strategy and social strategy most frequently, i.e. in the form of practice and social interaction, respectively. The case study is expected to serve as a reference for language learners seeking to learn new languages.

This research aims to explore the perspectives of ECE-TEP students regarding the deepening of tenses through the MBKM English Credential Camp program at UPI Serang. The challenges of education in the modern 21st century push ECE-TEP students to possess English communication skills. This is important because English is an international language. The use of English tenses by ECE-TEP students often requires appropriate understanding and training. The ECC program is an integrated and holistic solution to enhance the use of tenses by ECE-TEP students. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a case study. The primary data sources are direct questionnaires, audio recorders, and secondary data in the form of MBKM ECC program documents. Data analysis was conducted through four stages: data collection, data transcription, data categorization, and drawing conclusions. The research subjects consist of three individuals who are students of the ECC program. Participants are selected based on their academic performance in the program. The research findings indicate that the ECC program significantly contributes to improving the understanding of tenses among ECE-TEP students. This program is effective in preparing students to face the challenges of the 21st century through deepening improving their English language skills.

“…In the realm of education, especially in research schools, students tend to be more comfortable speaking, both using the national language, Indonesian, and English as a foreign language (Siregar, 2023;Rorintulus & Wuntu, 2023;Wijaya, 2023;Yamashita, 2023). Of course, the facts on the ground are not as perfect as expected, but they often use English when speaking at different levels.…”

This research aims to improve students' skills in writing descriptive text through the use of image media for class VII students at SMPN Satap Lelumpang. The low pre-test results of students are caused by teachers still using conventional methods of teaching writing. So the researchers decided to use a new method that had never been used before, namely using image media. The research carried out was classroom action research in two cycles. Each cycle consists of four stages, namely planning, action, observation, and reflection. The research was carried out at SMPN Satap Lelumpang, with the research subjects being class VII students. Data collection techniques include written tests and observation sheets. The results of research using image media show a significant increase. This can be seen from the students' learning results: in Cycle I, the average score was 4.87 in the poor category, increasing to 8.32 in the good category in Cycle II. The completeness of learning outcomes increased from 48.1% in Cycle I to 92% in Cycle II. This shows that students' skills in writing descriptive text increase through the use of image media.
