    ABSTRACT Researcher : Mulkia Qurrata Ayun Reg Number : 10256119014 Title : High School Students’ Perception and Expectation on English Teacher Competencies in Majene This research is grounded in the significance of the teacher's role in English language instruction, highlighting the differences in students' perceptions and expectations of teacher competence that may affect the quality of learning and learning outcomes, and indicating that the varying positive and negative perceptions in Majene reveal several aspects of teaching that need improvement. This research aims to identify and understand students‘ perceptions and expectations of English teachers’ competencies in three public high schools in Majene, namely SMA Negeri 1 Majene, SMA Negeri 2 Majene, and SMA Negeri 3 Majene. This research used a qualitative approach with purposive sampling to select 17 students as participants. The selection criteria were based on students' academic achievement and level of engagement in English classes. Data were collected through focus group discussions (FGDs). The results showed variations in students‘ perceptions, with the majority showing positive perceptions of teachers’ ability to create an interesting learning atmosphere through humour and varied learning methods. However, some negative perceptions also emerged, especially towards teachers who were considered too relaxed and did not utilise diverse learning media. Positive perceptions raise students' expectations of teacher performance, while negative perceptions point to areas that need improvement. The conclusion of this study emphasises the importance of teachers meeting students' expectations on aspects of pedagogic, professional, social and personal competencies to improve the quality of education and student learning outcomes in Majene. Teachers need to continue to develop creative and effective approaches to teaching to fulfil students' expectations and improve those aspects that still require improvement.
