Abstract

Teaching English to young learners differs greatly from dealing with adult learners. Young English learners have unique characteristics. As consequently, educators must be creative, capable of creating instructional media, and able to adapt their teaching strategies according to the requirements of their students. Particularly working with primary school pupils in Thailand, where there is definitely a language barrier between the pupils and Indonesian Pre-Service Teachers. The purpose of this qualitative case study is to investigate the strategies used by Indonesian pre-service teachers to teach English vocabulary to elementary school pupils, who range in age from six to twelve on average. This research also investigating the instructional media that Indonesian Pre-Service Teachers use to teach English vocabulary to Thai elementary school children. Data for this study were gathered through documentation, interviews, and observation. The findings show that Indonesian pre-service teachers employ Entertaining and Fun Learning Strategies , such as games, singing, and rewards. In addition, they use body movement as a teaching approach for vocabulary in English, having pupils imitate the teacher's gestures. Teachers use instructional media, such as still images, moving images and textbooks, to complement the strategies they employ. These media are thought to make it easier to convey material without worrying about language limitations. This finding imply that when doing an international teaching practicum, strategies and instructional media have to be utilized for teaching English vocabulary.
