B. Suggestions
The researcher addressed the suggestions specifically for the students and the teacher of grade XII Kimia Industri in SMKN 2 Depok Sleman, and generally
for the future researchers.
1. For English Teacher of XII Kimia Industri in SMKN 2 Depok Sleman
There are two points suggested for the teacher. First, since listening comprehension is a process and will be better achieved through keep practicing,
the researcher suggested the teacher to add the frequency of listening comprehension practice in class, not only approaching the National Examination,
but also in regular class. As a result, the students will be accustomed to listening to the materials and easily grab the main idea. Secondly, the teacher is suggested
to vary the materials. Using authentic materials was proven to improve their listening comprehension skills. Besides, it can also broaden the students’
knowledge, and give them opportunity to learn more, such as critical thinking.
2. For the Students of XII IPS 1 of SMKN 2 Depok Sleman
For the students, the researcher suggested them to practice the listening comprehension phases not only in the class but also outside the class. Authentic
materials are easy to find in almost everywhere and usually affordable. Therefore, the students are expected to be able to use authentic materials to learn effectively,
which enable them to improve their listening comprehension skills.
3. For Future Researchers
This research has limitation at seeing how authentic materials improved students’ listening comprehension skills. To answer the question of this research,

89 the researcher tried to describe the process of strategy implementation in the first
and second cycle as well as to elaborate why the strategy given is able to improve students’ listening comprehension skills. From the research results, it should be
further investigated to what extent authentic materials improved students’
listening comprehension skills, since they actually involved multiple skills. Therefore, the future researchers who are interested in listening comprehension
skills can carry out a more detailed research. As a result, there will be more thorough investigation about the implementation of authentic materials to improve
listening materials skills.
