Introduction
• This study aims to enable students to overcome
the challenges they mostly encountered in terms
of communication skills specifically speaking and
writing skills. Both speaking and writing skills are
significant because it is used to communicate
effectively. Without communication, people cannot
share information, ask questions and express their
needs in daily living.
•
• English Language has been accepted as our
universal language so that in primary education,
teachers have already taught us basic lessons to
help everyone in developing one’s skills. But today,
most senior high school students are seeing
difficulties in expressing their feelings using English
Language even in writing essays, short stories,
poems and other forms of literature. The fear in
terms of grammatical errors when speaking is truly
a challenge for them that affects their self-
confidence and self-esteem as an individual.
•
• To be able to improve speaking skills, make sure to
listen first because a good speaker should be a good
listener as well. Not focusing on grammars but on
how to speak fluency is also a way to improve it.
They may improve also these skills by the tasks
given by a teacher, it will help them in the future to
be hired easily as seafarers. Just be yourself and do
not let anyone judge you as a person.
