Review

General Review          :

            This article explains that English as a General Subject enhances the fundamental course learning process at the tertiary level. They are not yet adept enough to use it, based on the observations. It leads to low motivation, a lack of vocabulary, a lack of learning interest, and a lack of time allocation, among other things. The researchers then offer a good alternative in this article, which is to use an integrated method. The purpose of this study is to see if the Integrated Approach can enhance English proficiency and learning motivation, as well as how the learners' development process works and what elements impact it. The data presented is also extremely sufficient, namely 37 students from the Islamic University of Indragiri Tembilahan, and researchers employed questionnaires and examinations to acquire data from the 37 students.

            Overall, this article is excellent, and the findings are extremely beneficial to other researchers who will conduct similar study in the future. The findings and discussion portion is highly intriguing to read, as are the facts supplied and the graphs or tables that are displayed since they are straightforward and minimalist. Among the numerous intriguing aspects, the worst may be at the level of language or word choice coherence.

According to the general review above, the conclusions are; (1) each chapter is quite focused on the topic; (2) the data presented is extremely useful; and (33) the findings and discussion is highly intriguing to read with the facts and graphs displayed.

 

Major Weaknesses      : (1) The level of language is too high sometimes so it can confuse the reader a little bit and the coherence of a word choice is sometimes a bit odd.
