Abstract

Introducing English to children at home is an important step in building children's English language skills. In this context, parental involvement, especially the millennial generation, is a factor in supporting English learning at home. This research aims to explore the strategies used by parents in introducing English to their children at home and the challenges they face. This research used a qualitative method with a narrative research approach involving two participants from among millennial parents in Kedungkelor Village, Tegal City. The results showed that parents implemented five main strategies, namely: introducing basic vocabulary, sending children to English-based schools, understanding vocabulary through expansion, implementing interactive learning methods such as games and songs, and utilizing digital learning media such as YouTube and flashcards. Although parents showed a high commitment in assisting their children's learning, they also faced challenges such as limited English language skills and access to adequate learning resources. This research highlights the importance of the role of parents as facilitators in children's English learning at home.
