participants, while FGD was only conducted to three students who are still working as part-time English teachers. These three students were selected randomly to be
involved in FGD after they answered the questionnaires distributed by the researcher. By selecting these three students, the researcher expected that they could
express their opinions and experiences in more detail of being part-time English teachers. Moreover, the FGD could strengthen the data collection conducted by the
researcher.

The first, second, and third section in the questionnaires asked about the students’ general identity, the students’ type of job, and the students’ experiences
of working in a non-teaching form. The questions in those three sections were dichotomous questions where the students had to choose only one of some
