23 usefulness of the activity, and encouraging them to make as much effort as
possible for maximum benefit.
2 Resource
When the students do the writing task, teachers should be ready to supply and to give advice or suggestion. This kind of role can help the students to feel that they
are always monitored by their teacher as they have progress in doing the task.
3 Feedback provider
Teachers should respond positively and encouragingly to the content of what the students have written. Teachers also should know how to give correction and
feedback to their students in order to give the appropriate correction that will make them better and will not discourage them.
To sum up, teachers play important role in teaching writing. They can play roles as a motivator, a resource, and a feedback provider. These roles should be done by
the teachers in order to facilitate and help the students learn better.
3. Quantum Learning Strategy
a. Definition of Quantum Learning
Quantum Learning Model was formerly introduced in 1982 by Bobbie DePorter. It was started at Super Camp, an accelerated Quantum Learning
Program offered by the Learning Forum. In a 12-Day Staying Program, students got the strategies, ways or means that help them in recording, memorizing,
reading, writing, making creativity, communicating as well as building up a relation. The outputs achieved in Super Camp were as follows: 68 increasing

the motivation, 73 increasing the score, 81 increasing self confidence, 84 increasing self respect and 98 continuing the use of skill DePorter Hernacki
2008:19. There are some definitions of the Quantum Learning Strategy proposed by
experts. DePorter Hernacki 2008:16 defines Quantum Learning as interactions that convert energy into light. She equalized human body as material.
As material, student’s objectives are achieving as much as possible interaction to convert the energy into light. In short, in quantum learning students are required
to think, explore, and construct knowledge from their experiences with the guide from the teacher to get their success. This is in line with Vella 2002:31 who
states that Quantum Learning is keeping all together structures specially and privately in order to construct meaningful information, using all of the neural
networks in brain. Quantum learning is configured on theoretical foundations, atmosphere,
design and environment. Theoretical foundations are relevant with believes, agreements and instructions. Whereas, honesty, trust and individual feelings
compose the atmosphere. While design qualifies dynamic and interesting education program, environment is the structure which will increase and support
learning Ayvaz and others, 2007. Suryani 2013:55 defines Quantum Learning as a learning activity in a
pleasant atmosphere. The characteristics of quantum learning are the arrangement of pleasant and comfortable learning environment. Playing instrumental music
