Abstract

This research investigates the use of fairy tales as an effective medium for learning English, particularly to enhance reading and listening skills among eighth-grade students at SMPN 21 Bengkulu City. The study aims to address the lack of integration of fairy tales into English learning activities, with a specific focus on improving reading and listening comprehension for this grade level. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining both quantitative and qualitative techniques to bridge the disconnection between separate fields of study. Data collection methods included interviews, observations, questionnaires, pre-tests, post-tests, and documentation. A total of 31 students participated actively in the research. The pre-test results, conducted before the implementation of fairy tales, showed an average score of 56.55 categorized as low with a standard deviation of 12.33364. The lowest score recorded was 34, while the highest was 74. After the introduction of fairy tales in the learning process, post- test results revealed a significant improvement, with an average score of 80.71 categorized as good—and a reduced standard deviation of 8.6442. Post-test scores ranged from a minimum of 66 to a maximum of 96. Observations and questionnaire responses indicated that the majority of students reacted positively to the use of fairy tales in English lessons. Specifically, 61% of students strongly agreed and 36% agreed that this method improved their reading and listening skills. Overall, the findings demonstrate that incorporating fairy tales into English learning can significantly enhance students‘ language comprehension, making the process more engaging and effective.
