Self-efficacy is defined as a degree of someone’s belief to be able to deal with constrains to perform the given task well (Bandura, 1977). In education, there have been many studies conducted in self-efficacy. English teachers’ efficacy is one of the areas that has been become a concern for many researchers in EFL context due to its benefit to the teachers and students.  This research is qualitative research with the observation data collection technique. There were three observation objects: TEFLIN Journal, Indonesia Journal of Applied Linguistics, and Google Scholar. The result of the observation indicated that there was no any topic regarding self-efficacy in Indonesian context in the two journals, TEFLIN Journal and Indonesian Journal of Applied Linguistics; however in the Google   Scholar there were some self-efficacy researches in Indonesian context but the issues which were being discussed were not self-efficacy in English Teaching context. Therefore, English teachers’ sense of self-efficacy has not been a research area yet in the context of English teaching in Indonesia.

Abstract

Syntactic awareness has been linked to reading comprehension skills. In Junior high schools, syntactic awareness of noun phrases can be very important for the students in the Indonesian context because it can improve their reading comprehension. However, teaching noun phrases for the students can be challenging due to the grammar difference. The junior high school student’s noun phrase awareness was measured using a developed test. It consists of 28 questions with seven noun categories. The reliability test was conducted using KR-20 and the result was .90. The study indicated the average score of the students was 69.07 (fair). Of the seven noun phrases category, nominal possessors and conjoined noun phrases were good, prenominal possessors, multiple genitive constructs, alienable and inalienable possessions, and ad-positional phrases were fair, and nonreferential generative was weak. Referring to the result of the research, it is suggested to improve the student’s noun phrase awareness to enhance their reading comprehension.

Abstract

The high quality of academic writing is highly influenced by the sufficient use of academic phrases. This research examined the students with English major backgrounds in both English education and English literature and found their difficult recourses. This research developed an academic phrase test and adopted a questionnaire on students’ perception on the source of academic phrase difficulties. There were 58 respondents from English majors with 49 from English education and 9 from English literature. The result of the test indicated that the student’s ability in academic phrases needs to be improved. The students perceived those unfamiliar words usage, the absence of the syllabi, insufficient teaching, and less experience in using them are the source of difficulties.  Therefore, it can be said that academic phraseology should be included in the English student’s curriculum to solve the student’s issues. By doing this students’ exposure to academic phrases can be also increased so they will have more experience dealing with the phrases and can resolve their unfamiliarity with the words used in academic phrases. The findings of this study suggest that students in the English background majors should be assisted with academic phrases lessons to improve their academic writing in general and academic phrase usage in particular.
