IMPROVING ENGLISH SKILLS

Abstract

The importance of English in everyday life is due to the demands of the times. The Community Service Program provided is to improve English language skills. The focus of this service activity is how to use simple English in everyday life in order to communicate at least with millennial children, who are better known as 'anak jaman now. The target of PKM is PKK women in Ciater Village who are still limited in using English. Language is a means of communication, either directly or indirectly, both orally and in writing. The PKK women, especially in the Ciater Village, have potential because they live in an area that is close to the urban area of ​​Bumi Serpong Damai. English of course can be used to socialize and can also be used to teach their children (anak jaman now). That's why we want to share our knowledge and experience in using English to communicate both with our friends and with the ‘anak jaman now’. The interest and enthusiasm of the participants greatly facilitated us in providing material, this was seen from the enthusiasm of the PKM participants. The method used begins by measuring the extent to which the participants' English skills, most of whom are housewives, are housewives. Then do a number of games that can trigger the enthusiasm of the participants. Finally, the direct question and answer uses very simple English so that it is easy to understand and easy to apply. The results of this service were immediately visible when the participants were able to use simple sentences and some commonly used words.
