Abstract

English is a language that is needed by the academic community at State Islamic University (UIN) Mahmud Yunus Batusangkar to develop networks, communication skills and improve the quality of lecturers and staffs. With the creation of an English-speaking atmosphere by lecturers and staffs, it is hoped that interactions in English will occur frequently so that they can invite international students or international academics to carry out collaborative activities in the academic or non-academic fields. Therefore, the entire academic community of UIN Mahmud Yunus Batusangkar is trying to improve the abilities of its lecturers and staffs so that the graduates produced can compete at the national and international levels and have a good English speaking atmosphere on campus. Related to the problems faced by UIN Mahmud Yunus Batusangkar, we have dedicated English skills training activities in academic and office contexts with the aim of helping the vision and mission of their campus to accept students or academics from abroad. This training was carried out by preparing modules and using role-play learning models or demonstrations. This activity was very effective in improving the English language skills of lecturers and staffs at UIN Mahmud Yununs Batusangkar.
