The Teachers’ Questionnaire Analyzing Learners Characteristics

42 teachers in learning English. The topics being chosen are numbers, greetings, giving instructions, giving warnings, giving compliments, asking questions and asking for help. Those topics were offered to the immersion teachers and five out of seven topics were chosen to design the material. The purpose of the speaking material is to enable the immersion teachers in speaking English.

2. Analyzing Learners Characteristics

The data for analyzing learners’ needs were gathered by distributing questionnaires for immersion teachers and students. There were 10 immersion teachers who taught non-language subject matters and there were 32 immersion students. Both questionnaires were distributed to analyze learners’ needs.

a. The Teachers’ Questionnaire

There were forty questions in the teachers’ questionnaire and it was divided into four parts. The first part analyzed about teachers’ preparation before they taught immersion class. Since English became foreign language for the teachers, they needed to learn English through modules in order to improve their ability. Therefore, second part analyzed materials or modules that they learned. Teachers’ ability was analyzed in the next part and it was also used to know what they had learned so far. The last part was about teachers’ needs. Therefore, the questions were about some new topics which were often used in the teaching learning process, such as giving instruction, giving warn, giving compliments, and asking for help. The result of the teacher’s questionnaire is presented in the table below.
