Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 20, Issue 10
Abstract
This paper explored the case of senior high school students in a rural area in relation to their perception on English as a medium of instruction (EMI). This study considered the attitudes of senior high school students and implicitly described its possible relationship to the development of language proficiency among the respondents of the study. By using a survey questionnaire and structured interviews, the study aimed to describe the attitudes of senior high school students towards English as a medium of instruction. The participants showed a moderate extent of positive attitude towards EMI because they feel uncomfortable when teachers use English during lessons; The participants also showed both positive and negative attitudes toward EMI and its possible effects in their language learning. Although significant findings were derived, there is a need to further investigate the status of English as a medium of instruction in the rural contexts.
