1. I HAVE A COMMENT FROM THE INTERVIEW THAT I HAVE MADE BEFORE:


Language is a means of communication in the form of spoken and written. In
Indonesia there are various types of languages used in each region. However, the unified
language still uses Indonesian to facilitate communication. Because they have their own
language in each region, of course not many Indonesians know about foreign languages
such as English. In Indonesia, English is used as a foreign language which is applied to
countries that do not use English in everyday life and is used in certain circumstances.
Some people who know about English are currently attending educational institutions
both formal and informal. In general, children are introduced to English when they are in
grade 3 elementary school even though they are in university. I took an example from an
interview I made yesterday with a teacher (grade 5 elementary school), namely when they
were still in elementary school, children tended to be difficult to take seriously in terms of
learning even though there were children who might still be easy to learn with.
Moreover, during a pandemic like this, teachers have a little difficulty teaching
English. When the lesson is in progress, the teacher has provided a learning video through
the group wa, on the other hand, the teacher knows about "do they really understand what
I have said?". There must be a lot of teachers thinking of that. Even though, they have
been given the opportunity to ask questions, most children will definitely choose to
remain silent because there may be some who are afraid to ask questions and some do not
know what to ask because they do not understand what they are learning. Indeed, learning
will not run smoothly according to what is thought. But at least as teachers we must be
patient and always look for other alternatives about what the teacher tells students that
can be implemented properly.
2. MINI ESSAY
WHAT KIND OF ENGLISH TEACHER THAT I WANT TO BE IN THE FUTURE?
Teachers are educators who do not recognize merits. Being a teacher is an honor in
the world of education. Teachers are required to be able to do everything, not only in
providing learning materials. therefore I have aspirations to become an English teacher in
the future. So, what should I do and what will become an English teacher in the future ?.
Being a teacher is not as easy as turning your hand. To become an English teacher at
least I have to go through the lecture process for approximately 4 years (S1). From the
first semester to the fourth semester I entered the English language education program
and seemed quite happy to follow each subject. Even though sometimes there are some
other courses that make me confused but they are still under control. Starting in semester
5, I had to choose my skills, namely guiding, translating, and teaching. Without a doubt,
my choice was to choose teaching because it was one step closer to achieving my dream
of becoming an English teacher.
If it is true that I can become an English teacher in the future, the first thing I will do
is study and understand the curriculum that I will get later in the school where I live.
Second, I have to choose the right method in teaching and learning activities so that the
students enjoy taking my English class. Third, provide life motivation for students to
always be enthusiastic and cheerful about life even though life's storms hit. Fourth,
outside of class hours I will open tutoring so that students can more freely express their
curiosity about English because school hours are limited by time and there are many other
activities that I cannot possibly include here. Furthermore, I really want to be an English
teacher who is relaxed and friendly in the eyes of my students but still gets a serious
impression in teaching and learning activities. So every time the lesson took place I
slipped in some light jokes so that the class atmosphere was more conducive and less
tense. I will put myself as a friend and parent in the eyes of the students but without
losing my honor to be a teacher so that the students are not afraid and more relaxed to ask
questions and discuss directly with me later.
That's all I can say about some of the things that will be done and what kind of
English teacher I will be in the future. It might look quite common in the eyes of some
people but that's what I want in the future. The message to my students is that hopefully
you can work with me to build Indonesian education to be even better in the eyes of the
world. We have to prove that education in Indonesia is no less cool than education in
other countries. We start with the smallest things, namely always listening to teachers and
respecting teachers at school and outside of school. Not only liking and listening to
English lessons, but lessons such as history, science, mathematics and others we must
learn with joy.
