It also identifies the language learning strategies that the students use to deal with the difficulties and investigates the students' perspectives about the strengths and weaknesses of the EMI classes. The research subjects were 21 English Education undergraduate students of the 2020 batch of an international class program (hereinafter referred to as the ICP) at one of the state universities in Semarang, Indonesia. The research specifically managed three research questions: 1) What difficulties concerning the use of English do English Education undergraduate students face in learning the subject content in EMI classes?; 2) What strategies do they use to deal with these difficulties?; 3) What are the students' perspectives about the strengths and weaknesses of the EMI classes? The qualitative approach was chosen as the methodology in this research. Moreover, the research adopted open-ended questionnaires and semi-structured interviews as the research instruments. The sample of the data was the 21 students in the ICP, which consisted of 18 Indonesian and 3 Thai students. All the data collected were analyzed using Tracy's (2020) Phronetic Iterative Approach. There were two packed steps in the approach. The first step was primary-cycle coding where the researcher coded the data. It was similar to an open coding or initial coding. The next step is the secondary cycle where data was organized, synthesized, categorized and themed. The questionnaire answers and interview trasncriptions were coded based on Soruc and Griffiths' (2018) key themes category to find the problem experienced by the students and used Oxford's (1990) taxonomy to find the language learning strategy chosen by the students. In addition, the researcher used Simbolon's (2018) study to examine students' perspectives in the EMI class. The findings revealed that the most considerable difficulty faced by the students is the difficulty with speaking and listening with 20 answers. Related to the strategies used by the students, the most frequently used strategy was the cognitive strategy with 25 answers. In addition, the students indicated that the implementation of the EMI class had strengths and weaknesses. The biggest strength of the EMI class was that it could enhance students’ English proficiency with 14 answers. At the same time, students indicated the weakness of the EMI class that it was hard to understand some particular vocabulary used and low comprehension on the lessons with both 6 answers. Finally, this research shows pedagogical implications which focused on: 1) providing the preparation class before starting the EMI class; 2) providing a pleasant class environment; 3) providing a training program for lecturers.
