In this qualitative research, class observation used as a technique to collect data about teacher talk. To get the audio-visual data, the researcher had to observe the
process of teaching and learning in the classroom. Firstly, the researcher met the school’s principal to get a permission and informed her than the researcher would like
to do some classroom observation at the school. Second, the researcher met with classroom teacher to arrange the observation schedule. Third, the researcher did the
observations and interview session with the classroom teacher and the school principal.

term of verbal language between teacher and students. Table 3.5 was the sample of the audio transcript getting from class observation.
