A. Theoretical Description

Researcher reviews on some literature to find out some theories of learner language and the language competencies required to describe written reflection of Bahasa Inggris I class B students in Theology Faculty of Sanata Dharma University and to define their personal narratives. Researcher found some major theories that meet to support the analysis on this study. 1.

For many SLA researchers the goal of SLA is the description and explanation of L2 learners‟ competence and how this develops over time. Further he explains that there are implicit and explicit knowledge that cover what so called learners‟ competence. Implicit knowledge is the kind of knowledge we gain from our L1 mother tongue. The implicit knowledge we produce is unconcious and spontaneous.
