C. Suggestions
Based on the findings, conclusions and implications of the use of role play to improve the speaking skills of students grade X Nursing programme
of SMK Muhammadiyah 3 Klaten Tengah, the researcher wants to suggest some points to some parties. The suggestions are presented as follows.
1. To English teachers
The use of role play has a good effect to the students. It can help to motivate them in learning speaking English. Therefore, it is
suggested to the English teachers to use role play as an activity in the classroom. Fun activities like role play will help the teacher
to engage the students in the English teaching and learning process.
However, a teacher of English needs to enrich herself with the knowledge of how to select the effective resources that can improve
the students’ motivation toward the lesson. By creating effective and interesting activities, the teacher could make the student enjoy
the English teaching and learning process better.
2. To students
103 The students should manage themselves to always have
positive attitudes towards English lesson. They should have high motivation in learning English, especially speaking. They should
understand that it is very important for them to have more practices in speaking English. It is because vocabulary mastery
and pronunciation can be improved through practicing. Moreover, they should continuously be active during the English teaching and
learning process. 3.
To other researchers It is suggested that the other researchers can use the result of this
study as a reference. It is also advisable to conduct further research on this matter since this research is still far from perfect.
