The result of this study will give contribution for teachers to improve their teaching method in order to make an interesting, interactive, and effective
classroom during teaching and learning process. Beside that, teacher will realize that the need of using visualization in Desuggestopedia teaching
method as a part of teacher‟s talks can help them to make more interactive and comfortable. Conducive classroom environment will help students for
achieving the good result of English learning. 2
For the readers The result of this study will give the description about how to use the
visualization, especially in Desuggestopedia teaching method during class in order to get the good result in English learning. Then it will give
contribution to the readers who have correlation with it. 3
For me It will give much advantage to me as the students of English Education
Department to learn how to be a good English teacher and use a new t
echnique to improve the students‟ ability in four components also manage an enjoyable and comfortable classroom for the students and teacher itself.
1.7 Definition of Terms
To help me in observing the reference and guiding the research, there are some terms which are related to the study, they are:
1 Visualization
Visualization is the act or an instance of visualizing. In psychology, it is a technique involving focusing on positive mental images in order to
achieve a particular goal. It is also a kind of activity to form a mental image of something or to make it visible.
2 Desuggestopedia Teaching Method
Desuggestopedia is a teaching method developed by the Bulgarian psychotherapist
Georgi Lozanov . It is used in different fields, but mostly
in the field of foreign language learning. Lozanov has claimed that by using this method a teachers students can learn a language approximately
three to five times as quickly as through conventional teaching methods. The theory applied positive
suggestion in teaching when it was developed
in the 1970s. However, as the method improved, it has focused more on “desuggestive learning” and now is often called “desuggestopedia.”
3 Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is techniques for improving students success in extracting useful knowledge from text. Reading comprehension is
