Abstract

English is the first foreign language that is taught at Junior and Senior High School as compulsory subject. Actually, this language has been taught in Indonesia for a long time. But if we examine the result of teaching and learning English, it is considered unsatisfactory. It is proved by most of the students who have graduated from Senior High School still have less ability in English. They cannot rely on their ability whenever it is required. We ought to consider the hindrances that cause the teaching and learning process is unsatisfactory. One of the hindrances that cause this condition is dealing with the using of visual media. Many English teachers in Indonesia use visual media rarely in teaching learning process. Based on the phenomenon, the writer conducts this study, which is aimed at finding out the hindrances faced by the English teachers in using visual media. The accessible populations of this study are the English teachers and the students of SLTP Negeri 3 Batu. There are 3 English teachers and 675 students in this school. In order to get proportional representation, the writer uses stratified random sampling. So, the samples are all of the English teachers and 10% of the students from each grade as representation, since the total member of the assessable population was more than 100 objects. As a result, there are 3 English teachers and 68 students as the samples. In conducting this study, the writer uses descriptive research design to know the problems faced by the English teachers in using visual media. The instruments that are used in this study are questioner, interview, observation, and document. The data found in this study will be interpreted qualitatively. The results of this study show that the problems faced by the English teachers in using visual media are the lack ability of English teachers in making visual media, insufficient time allotment and fund allocation to provide visual media, the large number of the students in an class. Moreover, the English teachers also rarely conduct evaluation for their visual media used.
