Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine the category and proficiency of twelfth-grade students in using "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense at Alliful Ikhwan SAA, Silangkitang, South Labuhan Batu. This research emphasizes students' ability to use "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense among twelfth-grade students at Alliful Ikhwan SAA High School. Several issues faced by students in this study include difficulty in writing English well, challenges in using tenses in sentences, particularly "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense, and confusion among students in using components of "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense. The research was conducted at Alliful Ikhwan SAA, Silangkitang, South Labuhan Batu. The research method used was a mixed explanatory method. The population in this study consisted of 25 twelfth-grade students of Private Islamic Senior High School (MAS) Ikhwan SAA.

For data collection, the researcher used a multiple-choice test consisting of 25 questions to assess students' ability in using "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense. Additionally, interviews were conducted with the English language teacher who teaches twelfth-grade classes at Alliful Ikhwan SAA. Based on the research conducted on twelfth-grade students at Alliful Ikhwan SAA, it is concluded that their ability to use "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense is at a sufficient level. Several students received good and low scores. The average score of students was 45.12, indicating that they have adequate proficiency in using "will" and "going to" in the simple future tense.
