Table 4.1 presents four questions related to the learners’ backgrounds on
English. In the first statement, it was proven that nine 90 of the Sisters had ever joined an English course and one 10 of the sisters did not. The result of
statement number 2 showed that seven 70 of the Sisters had learned English since they were in primary school while three 30 of the Sisters did not learn
43 English when they were in primary school. The next finding, seven 70 of the
Sisters experienced that English they had learned when they were in school helped them to practice in speaking. However, three 30 of the Sisters did not
experience that English lesson helped them to practice in speaking. Statement number 19 showed that among the ten Sisters, five 50 of the Sisters had ever
experienced learning English using role play and five 50 of them have not. Based on the questionnaires
’ findings of learners’ background, it can be concluded that most of the Sisters had learnt English. The Sisters already had the
basic knowledge of English. English is not something new for them although three of the Sisters did not learn English when they were in primary school, but at least
they knew little about English because they also learnt English when they were in junior high school.
