This study analyzed English pronunciation, particularly the articulation of fricative consonants, poses significant challenges for many learners of English as a Foreign Language (EFL). In the Indonesian context, students often struggle with accurately producing English fricatives such as /θ/, /ð/, /z/, and /ʒ/, due to differences in phonological systems and limited exposure to native-like pronunciation. This study aims to analyze the pronunciation of English fricative consonants among first-year students at Kulliyyatul Mu’allimat Al-Islamiyyah (KMI). Darussalam Gontor Putri 1. The researcher has two main objectives: 1. To identify errors in the pronunciation of fricative consonants by first-year KMI students 2. To determine the factors causing students' difficulties in pronunciation. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method with observation, interviews. The researcher focused on first-year KMI students' pronunciation of fricative consonants. The findings reveal that students frequently substitute fricative consonant sounds such as /θ/ with /t/, /ð/ with /t/, and /z/ with /s/, indicating the influence of their native language on pronunciation. The primary difficulties in pronunciation arise from differences between English sounds and their native language, a lack of practice in class, and the more frequent use of Arabic in the learning environment. Additionally, phonetic instruction by teachers has not received sufficient attention. This study highlights the importance of phonetic instruction in improving students' speaking skills and provides recommendations for more effective teaching methods to enhance their pronunciation.
