These challenges are less of teaching material, teaching design, classroom management, ICT skill, many teaching administration, job loaded, and memory decrease. The second was from the students. Those are lack of vocabulary, loss of motivation, and juvenile delinquencies. The third was from schools. Schools had limited facilities, which can be utilized by teachers and students in teaching activities such as; limited dictionary, projector, and language laboratory. The fourth was from the parents. Many parents from the village have low education and future vision so it influenced their children's education. The study also gives three recommendations for succeeding in teaching English such as; (1) teachers should make teaching contract at the beginning of the semester, (2) principals send teachers joining to MGMP meeting and Continuous Professional Development activity, (3) schools give motivation to students and parents periodically.

Bahasa Inggris di SMP berisi tentang teks singkat tentang deskripsi, naratif, dan prosedural. Idealnya, para siswa diberikan teks bahan ajar yang dekat dengan kehidupan mereka. Kearifan lokal yang ada pada daerah siswa dapat menjadi media belajar yang otentik bagi siswa.

Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini memiliki tujuan agar guru-guru Bahasa Inggris yang ada di Kabupaten Tanah Laut dapat memodifikasi, membuat, dan mengaplikasikan bahan ajar berbasis kearifan lokal daerahnya dalam proses pengajaran dan pembelajaran. Sasaran kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah Guru-guru Bahasa Inggris SMP yang tergabung dalam MGMP Bahasa Inggris se-Kabupaten Tanah Laut yang berjumlah 50 orang.  Metode yang digunakan pada pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah kualitatif. Hasil pelatihan ini berupa bahan ajar yang meliputi teks deskriptif, naratif, dan prosedural berbasis kearifan lokal Kabupaten Tanah Laut.
