Abstract

This study focuses on English Transformative teachers (Guru Penggerak) understanding in differentiated instruction approach, as well as the challenges they face while implementing differentiated learning in the independent curriculum. The participants of this study were three English Guru Penggerak. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that the teachers have a solid understanding of the concept, philosophy, and purpose of differentiated instruction. Although the Guru Penggerak English teachers demonstrated a strong theoretical grasp, they continue to face real-world challenges in implementation. These include managing student diversity, time constraints in lesson preparation, increased teacher workload, and students' varying levels of physical and mental readiness. To address these issues, the teachers have shown proactive efforts in seeking effective solutions, such as implementing better time management strategies and adapting instructional planning to suit diverse learners’ needs. Therefore, greater attention must be given to the actual conditions and limitations they face in the school environment. Moreover, smooth and two-way communication with parents is considered essential to support the success of differentiated instruction and to ensure students' learning needs are fully met both at school and at home. Keywords: Differentiated Instruction, DI understanding, DI Challenges, English Guru Penggerak
