Abstract

This study addresses the challenges faced by EFL Classes at the University of Mataram in constructing passive voice sentences in the simple present and simple past tenses. The research problem stems from difficulties related to verb tense changes, subjectverb agreement, pronoun usage, and the appropriate use of "by" in passive voice constructions. The study aims to identify the causes of these issues and offers insights into potential solutions. The research methodology involves a descriptive qualitative approach, employing exercises to assess students' understanding and application of passive voice structures. The results reveal a lack of fundamental grammar knowledge, limited exposure to passive voice, inadequate practice opportunities, and unclear explanations as contributing factors to the challenges. Language transfer from native languages and a lack of feedback further compound the problem. To address these issues, the study recommends basic tense understanding, increased practice, targeted feedback, and exposure to authentic materials to enhance students' proficiency in constructing accurate passive voice sentences.
