This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the peer teaching strategy improving the mastery of Malay verb circumfix di-i among Year Five students of seven National-Type Chinese Schools (SJKC). A quantitative design was used in this study. Data was collected using an experimental method. The study sample consisted of 224 Year Five students from National-Type Chinese Schools (SJKC) in South Seberang Perai. The sample was divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group underwent intervention with the peer teaching strategy. The instruments used in this study were pre-tests and post-tests. Test data were analyzed using t-test, mean, median and mode to determine the probability of the sample representing the total student population. The findings of this study prove the effectiveness of the peer teaching strategy in improving the mastery of Malay verb circumfix, specifically di-i. The most common error made by the experimental group in the pre-test was the circumfix di-i, accounting for 30.35%. The errors made by the experimental group in the post-test decreased to 5.35%. In conclusion, the use of effective teaching technique not only attracts students’ interest in learning circumfix, but also improves their mastery of using the Malay circumfix di-i. The findinggs of the study provide positive implications for current educational development because the peer teaching strategy emphasizes the active involvement of students. Therefore students become more confident in sharing ideas and more active in learning circumfix di-i. Click or tap here to enter text.References
