44 of completing the questionnaire must be made as easy as possible so that the
respondent will not get confuse and it can be done effectively. The interview was done to obtain the data from the learners. According to
Wallace 1998:146, there are three kinds of interview, namely structured interviews, unstructured interviews, and semi-structured interviews. A structure
interview has a very tight structure, and in which the questions will probably be read from a carefully prepared interview schedule, similar to questionnaire but
used orally Wallace, 1998:146. Unstructured interview has some kind of structure but not as tight as structured interview and it would simply be a
conversation Wallace, 1998:146, while semi-structured interview also has the structure but most of the questions will probably be open questions Wallace,
1998:147. In this study, the semi-structure interview was done because it would make good atmosphere and effective condition so that the participant could give
more detailed response. It was also done because interviews would give data that could not be completed by questionnaire.
