B. Suggestions
In this part, the writer aims to propose some suggestions to the English teachers of SMP Negeri 2 Yogyakarta as well as the future researcher. The
suggestions are:
1. For the English Teachers of SMP Negeri 2 Yogyakarta
Since the students are actually interested in the listening class, it is better for the teacher to give them more listening practices. Besides, it is better for the
teacher to prepare the creative and interesting activities for the listening practices. Moreover, the students become interested in the listening class if they are
provided by audio or audio visual recording. Thus, providing them audio or audio visual recording will be a good idea for the listening activities.
In using the designed materials, the teacher should understand the materials as well as the instructions well. Besides, the media supported should be
well-prepared due to the use of audio and audio visual recording. However, the teacher can still improve and modify the materials.
2. For the Future Researchers
The writer realizes that this study is still so far from the perfection that needed to be developed more by the future researchers. Thus, the writer suggests
the future researcher who is interested in conducting the similar study improve the materials and make it more applicable. In addition, the writer suggests the future
researcher design more various English materials based on more combinations of approaches which are suitable for the eighth graders of junior high school.
