The table shows that there are 2 types of perlocutionary acts that he most performs when teaching. They are to inspire the hearer and to get hearer to do something which have the same frequency, 24.77. It is because he is a teacher who always inspires his students with his own way. He has a lot to tell about to the students in order to inspire them. Also, for getting hearer to do something, it is actually natural for teachers to perform this since teachers usually ask the students to do things like presenting, reading, doing assignment and homework, and so on. On the other hand, to insult the hearer is the perlocution with the lowest percentage because Mr. Keating even does not do this to really insult the student. It is only to make the students respect other people’s work. Thus, he does not do this much. Meanwhile, for the perlocutions which are not performed by Mr. Keating like to surprise the hearer, to bore the hearer, to annoy the hearer, to frighten the hearer, and to alarm the hearer, it happens because those perlocutionary acts are not common in classroom discourse and mostly, it occurs in daily conversation and even some are only in certain case. Thus, they cannot be found in Mr. Keating utterances when teaching.

People who can do this illocutions are people who have special position by which they can change the world via their utterances. In this case, Mr. Keating is one of those people who can perform this kind of illocutionary act. 2.6 of Mr. Keating’s utterances when teaching are categorized as declarations. The examples are as follows: Mr. Keating : Now, in this class, you can either call me Mr. Keating or if you’re slightly more daring, O captain, my captain. [declaration] Students : smiling SC164 In the dialogue above, we can see how Mr. Keating changes the situation of his class. Generally, students call their teacher Mr., Ms., or Mrs., but here, Mr. Keating changes that orthodox behavior of students via his utterances. Mr. Keating can do this because he is the person with the highest social level in the class. Teachers are socially higher than students and therefore Mr. Keating is able to perform declarations. On the other hand, the example above also shows us that Mr. Keating is different from other teachers. He asks his
