Berlitz Method through Classroom Action Research CAR that had been done. In this case, the writer divided into three criteria of questions. Those
were the general condition in English class during Classroom Action Research, the difficulties in implementing Berlitz Method during
Classroom Action Research CAR, and the method that had been used
to overcome the revised plan. The first category was the general condition in English class
during the action. The teacher said that the students’ condition were better than before. In this sense, they could more active and focus on doing the
exercises individually rather than before carried out the Classroom Action Research CAR and of course, they more comprehend the structures of
adverbial clause of time text. Beside of their improving grammar ability in adverbial clause of time, the teacher also believed that the Berlitz Method
was able to create students’ creative thinking ability. Then, the teacher assumed that Berlitz Method was a good way to teach adverbial clause of
time text because when students were enjoying the English class, they could had wrote and analyzed the part of text itself which had related to
the adverbial clause of time. The second category was the difficulty of the teacher in
implementing Berlitz Method during Classroom Action Research CAR. The teacher said that at the first time, she got difficulty in explaining the
concept and the use of Berlitz Method. The teacher was confused because all of students had not studied yet what adverbial clause of time was.
Moreover, most of students at first had been confused how explain adverbial clause of time in used of target language. Hence, the teacher
should be more explicit in explaining the adverbial clause of time use and
the structures. Another difficulty was the spending time toward students’ work in accomplishing the adverbial clause of time exercises.
The third category was how the teacher overcomes the problems and difficulties used Berlitz Method during Classroom Action Research
CAR. In this case, the teacher and the writer kept collaborating to discuss the resolution of those problems above such as the existing of used
of target language in English class. Besides, for the problems whose most of students could not understand the used of adverbial clause of time
structures and the consequently in every meeting of action at least the teacher kept reviewing the concept of the structures in the previous lesson.
