Practical Academic English Presentation Training: Preparing Students for Higher Education and the Workforce at Ta'miriyah Senior High School Surabaya

Abstract

Academic English presentation skills are internationally recognized competencies essential for university admissions, civil service examinations, and future career readiness. However, many high school students still struggle to effectively apply these skills for competent oral and written communication. This paper details the implementation of a practical Academic English Presentation Training program at Ta'miriyah Senior High School designed to bridge this gap. The instructional method helps students navigate academic English by teaching them to identify key elements within texts and apply contextual pattern searches. By recognizing these contextual patterns, students can better comprehend academic material, formulate appropriate responses, and systematically develop their presentation capabilities using the proper methodological frameworks.
