Abstract

Fatoni 2024. The Analysis Of English Speaking Difficulties In Second-Grade Students At Mifda Vocational School. Thesis. English Education Department, STKIP PGRI Bangkalan. Supervisor: Moh. Arief Wahyudi, M.Pd. Keywords: Speaking, Difficulties, Language, Motivation Language is a crucial communication tool, with English emerging as the dominant global language. In Indonesian vocational schools, including MIFDA, English is a core subject, especially for developing essential skills like speaking. However, Second-Grade students at SMK MIFDA face significant challenges in mastering English speaking skills. These challenges include limited vocabulary, pronunciation difficulties, and a lack of confidence, often worsened by insufficient practice and reliance on their native language, Madura. This study, titled " The Analysis of English Speaking Difficulties in Second-Grade Students at MIFDA Vocational School," aims to explore these difficulties using a qualitative case study approach. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Findings indicate that students struggle with speaking due to low motivation, inadequate learning materials, and an unsupportive environment. Effective solutions include boosting motivation, providing interactive learning resources, and creating supportive practice opportunities. The results of this study align with previous research and highlight the need for improved teaching methods and supportive learning environments to help students overcome their English language challenges.
