English more than the students do. Although, the teacher still used a little varieties
of Classroom English in the implementation of English Conversation Club. Then,
a group work activity in English Conversation Club has given positive impact for
the students. In suggestions, for the teachers, it is better if they use more varieties

of classroom English then applies it in the class. It can increase the students’
English knowledge. In group work, it is better if a teacher not only as an instructor
but also as the facilitator for students. For eleventh grade students, following a
club like English Conversation Club it will increase their English knowledge. For
the next researcher, it can be reference for the next research, which related to the

ABSTRAKSI

Sari, Dian Anita. 2014. Pelaksanaan Klub Percakapan Bahasa Inggris pada
Siswa Kelas XI MA NU BANAT KUDUS pada Tahun Ajaran 2013/2014.
Skripsi. Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris, Fakultas Keguruan
dan Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Muria Kudus. Pembimbing:
(I) Mutohhar, S.Pd., M.Pd. (II) Drs. Muh Syafei, M.Pd.
Kata Kunci: Klub percakapan bahasa Inggris, siswa kelas XI, Deskriptif
Kualitatif.
Bahasa Inggris adalah bahasa yang digunakan bagi berbagai dunia.
Menguasai Bahasa Inggris akan sia-sia tanpa adanya penguasaan berbicara.

Beberapa sekolah, termasuk MA NU Banat Kudus, telah mendirikan klub bahasa
Inggris sebagai salah satu media bagi siswa untuk mengembangkan kemampuan
berbicara mereka dalam Bahasa Inggris.
Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pelaksanaan klub bahasa
Inggris pada MA NU Banat Kudus. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah : 1) Untuk
mendeskripsikan bahasa Inggris kelas yang digunakan oleh siswa dan guru dalam
Klub Percakapan bahasa Inggris di MA NU Banat Kudus pada tahun ajaran
2013/2014. 2) Untuk mendiskripsikan pendapat siswa terhadap kerja kelompok
dalam Klub Percakapan bahasa Inggris di MA NU Banat Kudus pada tahun ajaran
2013/2014.
Penelitian ini menggunakan descriptive kualitatif yang bertujuan untuk
mendeskripsikan bahasa Inggris kelas yang digunakan oleh siswa dan guru, dan
mendeskripsikan pendapat siswa ketika bekerja dalam sebuah kelompok dalam
klub bahasa Inggris di MA NU Banat Kudus pada tahun ajaran 2013/2014. Subjek
pada penelitian ini adalah 20 siswa. Data untuk penelitian ini dikumpulkan
melalui observasi dan kuesioner. Observasi dilakukan dalam tiga kali pertemuan,
ini untuk mendeskripsikan bahasa Inggris kelas yang digunakan oleh siswa dan
guru. Lembar observasi disusun berdasarkan teori dari Glyn. Dan kuesioner telah
dilengkapi oleh seluruh subjek-subjek untuk mendiskripsikan pendapat mereka
mengenai bekerja dalam kelompok (kerja kelompok) dalam English Conversation

Club.
Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru lebih banyak menggunakan
bahasa Inggris kelas daripada para siswa. Tetapi, guru cenderung menggunakan
bahasa Inggris kelas yang sama di setiap pertemuan. Untuk data yang pertama, ini
ditemukan bahwa dalam memulai pelajaran mayoritas bahasa Inggris kelas (55%)
digunakan oleh guru dan siswa hanya (27,77%). Kemudian dalam menjalankan
pelajaran menunjukkan mayoritas bahasa Inggris kelas (53,33%) digunakan oleh
guru dan siswa hanya (13,33%). Dalam mengakhiri pelajaran, ini ditemukan
bahwa mayoritas bahasa Inggris kelas (27,77%) digunakan oleh guru dan siswa
hanya (11,11%). Data kedua mengenai pendapat siswa terhadap kerja dalam
kelompok (kerja kelompok) dalam pelaksanaan Klub Percakapan Bahasa Inggris.
Secara keseluruhan, ketika bekerja dalam kelompok banyak siswa merasa senang

xi

meskipun terdapat beberapa kendala yang mereka rasakan dalam sebuah
kelompok. Data menunjukkan bahwa bekerja dalam kelompok atau kerja
kelompok mempunyai pengaruh yang positif terhadap pembelajaran siswa.
Dari penelitian ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa guru menggunakan bahasa
Inggris kelas lebih banyak daripada siswa. Meskipun demikian, guru masih

menggunakan sedikit variasi bahasa Inggris kelas dalam pelaksanaan klub bahasa
Inggris. Kemudian, aktivitas kerja kelompok dalam klub bahasa Inggris telah
memberikan pengaruh positif pada siswa. Pada saran, untuk para guru, alangkah
baiknya jika mereka dapat menggunakan bahasa Inggris kelas lebih bervariasi
kemudian menggaplikasikannya dalam kelas. Hal ini dapat menambah
pengetahuan bahasa Inggris siswa. Dalam kerja kelompok, lebih baik jika seorang
guru tidak hanya menjadi pelatih tetapi juga menjadi seorang fasilitator bagi
siswa. Untuk siswa kelas XI, mengikuti sebuah klub seperti klub bahasa Inggris
akan menambah pengetahuan bahasa Inggris mereka. Untuk para peneliti
selanjutnya, ini dapat menjadi referansi untuk penelitian selanjutnya, yang
berkaitan dengan topik.
