Abstract

This research is motivated by the diversity of interests, learning styles, and readiness levels of students at SMA Negeri 3 Padangpanjang, which requires teachers to apply flexible teaching strategies. The Merdeka Curriculum implemented in this school facilitates the application of differentiated learning, particularly in English subjects. Therefore, this study aims to describe how differentiated learnin g is implemented by English teachers and to identify the challenges they face, as well as formulate solutions to optimize its implementation. This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving one English teacher as the research participant. Observations were conducted to directly examine the learning process in the classroom, while interviews were used to explore the teacher’s understanding, planning, implementation, assessment, and challenges encountered. Documentation was used to complement the data obtained from observations and interviews. The findings indicate that the teacher implemented differentiated learning in the aspects of content, process, and product. Lesson planning was based on students’ learning styles (audio, audio-visual, and kinesthetic). The teacher provided options for assignments and forms of assessment that suited students’ needs and grouped them flexibly. However, in practice, teachers face challenges such as limited time, classroom management, and adjustments to the student-centered curriculum. Solutions applied by the teacher included developing efficient lesson plans, simplifying learning loads without reducing quality, and completing assessments at school. Support from the school also contributed to the successful implementation of differentiated learning at SMA Negeri 3 Padangpanjang.
