Abstract

English proficiency is one`s ability to understand, produce, and construct in English, including reading and writing. The English language had become important and widely used especially by the students in terms of their study or their academics. Being knowledgeable in the English language does not mean being proficient. There are other reasons like their grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and confidence that stops the students from using the English language. Students that are not proficient in the English language can have disadvantages in their academics. To find out the main factors why the students are not proficient in the English language, we used the survey to gather the information from the different sections of grade 12 ABM students in Bestlink College of the Philippines. Through this method, we might be able to identify the factors related to English proficiency that can affect students’ academic performance. The result of the study shows these factors affecting English proficiency to the academic performance of Grade 12 Accountancy, Business and Management in terms of these variables: (1) Grammar –shows that the respondents agreed that they do not have enough knowledge in Grammar rules. (2) Vocabulary –shows that respondents agreed that they are having a hard time choosing words to use in a sentence because they often spell the difficult words incorrectly. (3) Confidence –shows that the respondents agreed that they are stammering during reporting and recitation, they cannot express thoughts and ideas and are afraid of being teased when using the English language. (4) Pronunciation–shows that the respondent agreed that they feel embarrassed when mispronouncing English words that’s why they need to repeat pronouncing the word correctly just to be understood by the listeners. All the students aim to become proficient in English so that they can participate like what others can do. We all know that being not proficient in the English language might affect their academics negatively. This study cannot fully ensure that the solutions made will be fully implemented in this school.
