for revision and improvement of the design materials. The writer found several points of suggestions as stated below:
1. Instruction
Respondent advised to make the instructions simpler and clearer so that the learners can understand the instructions easier and focus on the activities instead
of reading the instruction. 2.
Spelling and Grammar There were some misspelling and grammatical mistakes. Respondent
suggested to check the language covering grammatical and misspelling mistakes so as to avoid giving bad examples to the learners.
