Most of the learners have had their Bachelor Degree. The results of the questionnaires indicated that learners’ learning motivation was very high. There
were 12 out of 15 participants who stated their enjoyment of learning English. All the staff of Bank Mandiri Yogyakarta considered that English is important. Most
of them had a conversation in English to interact with the foreign customers in Bank Mandiri. The learners stated that 1 to 5 of their customers are
foreigners. Although English is important, the mastery of English was not considered as a must for them, because it did not influence their status, salary and
promotion. However, since their job description is to serve the customers well, they considered speaking as the most important skill to learn. It can be seen in
Table 4.2.
