Background
As
internationally pronounced language, English occupies the first position in the
word for communication. This position makes English most widely used all over
the world in all aspects of human life. English is a language used conveying
our ideas to other persons. We can communicate with other people in the world
by the language. In our country, English plays an important role in
international communication and in the development of Education, Economic,
Science, and Technology.
The
problem that usually find is that the students’ are capable of structure or
reading, but have the lack of speaking, although English has been thought in
Indonesia as a compulsory subject from elementary school, junior school to
senior high school and university. Therefore, we can state that speaking is one
of the improvements of their speaking skill. “Speaking is active or productive
and makes use of the aural medium. If we think of speaking term of use,
however, the situation is rather different. To begin with an act of
communication through speaking is commonly performed in face to face
interaction and occurs part of dialogue or other form of verbal exchange.”
(Widdowson, 1983: 58).
Speaking is
the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal and
non-verbal symbols. Speaking is a crucial part of second language learning and
teaching. However, today’s world requires that the goal of teaching speaking
should improve students’ communicative skills because students can express
themselves and learn how to use a language.
The students had
problem in speaking such as pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency and
comprehension. They seldom practice their speaking in class. They just study
about memorizing and conversations, after that they practice their friends
without know what was the meaning and how to speak the sentences well. It makes
students lower in speaking and than student does not creative in speaking.
The teacher in
teaching English just uses traditionally method, like speech method to explain
the material until finish. It makes the students bored. In other hand the
teachers does not use media and they never changed the method. And than teacher
just gives test the student without explains the first, besides that the
teachers just ask to students to memorize the conversation and than ask them to
practice it.
English
teacher should be creative in developing their teaching learning process to
create good atmosphere, improve the students speaking skill, give attention to
the speaking components, and make the English lesson more interesting
Students need
something different in study English, specially speaking. Study speaking is
study about communication and interaction with people. To make interaction we
need object to do it, such as community. In community there is social
relationship and need interaction to make relation with the same?????????????????????????????????
