Abstract

This study aims to explore students' experiences in learning English vocabulary through the Hello English application based on Kolb's Experiential Learning Theory (1984) with a qualitative approach and narrative inquiry design. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed based on the four stages of Kolb: Concrete Experience, Reflective Observation, Abstract Conceptualization, and Active Experimentation. Participants consisted of three eleventh-grade students aged 16-17 years, active members of the Youth English Club community of Pekalongan, Indonesia, who were selected purposively. The research was conducted in the context of non-formal learning through interactive activities and vocabulary exercises using Hello English. The results showed that the app provided a positive learning experience, such as ease of repetition, increased motivation, and the ability to convey vocabulary directly, but participants also faced technical obstacles such as sub-optimal audio quality and rigid level mechanisms. These findings show that Hello English is effective as an interactive and flexible vocabulary learning medium, while contributing to the understanding of the English learning process through mobile applications
