ABSTRACT
Rani Ligar Fitriani. S891308032, 2016. The Teaching and Learning Program of
English Speaking Proficiency in a Business and Technology College (A Case
Study at LP3I Business and Technology College Tasikmalaya, Kota Tasikmalaya
West Java in the Academic Year of 2014-2015). The First Consultant: Dr.
Ngadiso, M.Pd. and the Second Consultant: Dr. Slamet Supriyadi, M.Pd. Thesis.
English Education Department, Graduate School of Teacher Training and
Education Faculty, Sebelas Maret University, Surakarta.
The objective of this research is to find out: (1) the development of
English speaking proficiency in LP3I Tasikmalaya Business and Technology
College Tasikmalaya; (2) the problem of developing English speaking proficiency
programs in a business and technology college; and (3) the effect of developing
English speaking program to the students’ English speaking proficiency at LP3I
Business and Technology College Tasikmalaya.
This research is carried out through a case study. The population of this
study is the students of second grade of LP3I Business and Technology College
Tasikmalaya in the academic year of 2014-2015 that consist of eleven classes.
The respondents of this research are ten students and four English teachers at
LP3I Business and Technology College Tasikmalaya in the academic year of
2014-2015. The respondents are chosen based on the purpose of this study, so the
researcher uses the purposive sampling. The research data are obtained from
observation, interview, and document analysis. They are analysed by using three
steps namely the data reduction, the data presentation/display and the conclusion
drawing/verification.
The result of the research findings leads to the conclusion that: (1) LP3I
Tasikmalaya has its own system which consists of some interrelated programs to
develop English proficiency in general and speaking in particular. There are
English programs that contribute to the development of students’ English
speaking proficiency. English activities in the classroom foster the students to use
English in the good way communication. English activities outside the classroom
create the English atmosphere and accustom the students to speak English by
practicing more in the English environment. (2) There are some problems in
developing students’ English speaking proficiency at LP3I Tasikmalaya; The
students’ difficulties to speak come from the psychological factors (confidence,
anxiety, motivation, awareness); The students’ difficulties to speak come from the
linguistic factors (pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar, fluency, comprehension).
(3) There are some positive effects of developing English speaking program at
LP3I Tasikmalaya to the students’ English speaking proficiency such as students’
confidence, students’ motivation, students’ awareness, students’ vocabulary,
students’ initiative, students’ pronunciation, and students’ comprehension in
speaking English are improving.
Key words:a case study, business and technology college, English speaking
proficiency
