1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the research
English is one of international languages, it has important role in the
world. Most of people use English to communicate with other people from others
countris. Science, technology, art and culture devolopment also cannot be
sepparated to the role of the language, for those reason English has been thought
at every level of education in Indonesia as a foreign language (Ramelan, 1992).
Language is built by some skills, there are listening, speaking, reading, and
writing. All of te language skills, each other, listening for detail, speaking to
making interaction, reading for general understanding, writing to make a note.
In education system, improving language needs teaching and learning
process. The result to teaching is affected by some factors, such a learners, the
teacher, time alotment, material, the use visual aid, methodology, teaching
material and interaction between the teacher and student in the classroom
(Harmer, 2001). The interaction between the teacher and student in the classrom
becomes an esential part of teaching learning process.
Interaction is key of in teaching language for communication classroom
interaction describes the from and the content of behaivor or social interaction in
the classroom. Interaction in classrom which aims at teaching the target language,
including in speaking class, come variuosly.
Educator and teacher practuculary nglish not giving attention to the
teaching. It is suggested that interaction adjustment were made by teacher to make
comperhension checks, repetition of student stetments, and use of mother tongue.
Among a number of profesionals in the fields of second language
acquestion, there appears to be an increasing conviction that teacher talk is
neccassary as facilitations in the English teaching process. In the recent years, many researchers are only focus on the teacher‟s techniques on teaching trough many kinds of methods, somehow teachers‟ language is much more important to be focus on, but it is rarely found. Teacher‟s language has become an important issue to investigate and discuss. Chaudron (1988) says the teacher talk is one of
major issues in second language classroom research. This is quite true with which many of the classroom language research deal with teacher‟s language (Ellis, 1990; in Allwright and Bailay, 1991).
Based on the explanation above, the researcher chooses SMAN 12
Enrekang because the teachers here used teacher talk. So, the reseacher can
analyze teacher talk that use by English Teachers in SMAN 12 Enrekang.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter deals with some previous related findings consisting of theories
and concepts related to this research, partinent ideas mainly focuses on teacher
talk and English teaching process, resume and conseptual framework.
A. Some Previous Related Findings
In order to make the teaching and learning process more effective, many
researchers have been analyzed. The related research has been analyzed and
oserved by the researcher. Some of related researches are mention below:
Rasyid,(2015) on they research entitle “Teachers‟ Instructional and
Management Talk in English Foreign Language Classroom” this study was
conducted to find out the contexts and frequency of instructional and management
talks use and the frequency of native and target language use for instructional and
management talks. The subjects of this study were four Indonesian English
teachers. The data was collected by observation. The finding showed that teachers
use instructional talk in 5 contexts and management talk in 15 contexts. Teachers
talk more for management talk than instructional talk. Teachers used target
language more for management talk than for instructional talk.
Nurpahmi, et al. (2017) on their research entitle “Teacher Talk in Classroom
Interaction” this article explains about the types of teachers‟ talk in classroom
interaction. This research was case study. In this research, the writer applied

introducing the new material, giving direction and instruction, encouraging and
motivating, giving advice and closing the class.
Ade Nurul Aulia (2018) on her research “An Analysis of Teacher Talk use by

All of the previous researchers have similarity in this study that was the use of
teachers talk as the main focus on the research. However, all of the previous
research and this study have some differencess, those where the setting. The
previous research analyzed the kind of teacher talk features, categories of teacher
talk, and investigated ways of the teacher talk. Besides, the researcher investigated he kinds of teachers‟ talk in English teaching process.
B. Some Partinent Ideas
1. Theory of teaching and lerning
Teaching-Learning of English The term “teaching-learning” rests on two words, “teaching”, and “learning”. These words are interconnected to each other and they are involved with human beings. According to Richard and Lockhart
(1994: 29), teaching is a complex process which can be conceptualized in a
number of different ways. Brown (1987: 6) says that teaching can be defined as
showing or helping someone to learn how to do something, giving knowledge,
and causing to know or understand. Kimble and Garmezy in Brown (2000: 7)
insist that learning is a relatively permanent change in a behavioral tendency and
is the result of reinforced practice. In order to be easier to understand, this
definition is then clarified by Brown (2000: 7) into following issues :
a. Learning is acquisition or „getting‟
b. Learning is retention of information or skill
c. Retention applies storage system, memory cognitive organization
d. Learning involves active, conscious focus on and acting upon events outside
or inside the organism
e. Learning is relatively permanent but subject to forgetting
f. Learning involves some form of practice, perhaps reinforced practice
g. Learning is a change in behavior.The teaching and learning are two
inseparable things. Therefore, in the English teaching learning process there
should be a good relationship between the teacher and the students; both
Teaching and learning process is an activity involving teachers and pupils
in learning activity. Teaching learning process is difined as instructional process
trought the organazition and direct instruction of the teaher,learners and material
in the classroom (Richard and Rodgers, 13 1998:22). So the teaching learning is
an activity involving teachers and pupils who aim to understand the English
language material including four skills then practice it and develop it.
Based on Crawford (2005: 10) teaching is more than a set of methods.
Teaching means addressing a set of objectives, for particular group of students, at
a certain point in the school year, with certain resources, within particular time
frame, in a particular school and community setting. It means finding a
balancebetween direct instructions and orchestrating the activities of individuals
and groups of students. Itmeans developing students‟ skills and strategies for
learning, at the same time they learn the content of the curriculum. 11 12
According to Stren in Johnson (1991: 10) English language teaching is defined
broadly as creating situation that promote second language and learning. It
involves organizing learning environment, language use and language learning
activities that are intended to facilited students language development.
2. Theory of Teacher Talk
Nunan (1992; 189) states teacher talk is of crucial importance, not only the
organization of the classroom but also for the processes of acquisition.even
though the student in this setting do not have the similar exposure of the
languages they follows second language setting, some achievement are similar,
English the motives behind the teacher talk is to make the interaction in class
comprehensible.
Xiaou-yan (2006) express to opinions about teacher talk.The first is that
we can see that one variation of language can be said to be special if the teacher
talk is used in the English class, so that the teacher can have its own distinctive
characteristics that are different from the others, because of the limititation of
physical arrangement. The second we can see that the teacher talk is a
communicative activity that aims to to communicate with students and can develop students‟ abilities in foreign languanges.
Dong-lin (2018) defines teacher talk as a special variety or register of
language especially marked by a special set of vocabulary associated with a
profession or occupation.it is the oral from of teacher talk instead of written from
that is under the investigation. Teacher talk is used in class when teachers are
teaching students linguistic knowledge, cultivating their intellectual ability and
managing classroom activities. The other statement about teacher talk comes from Osborne‟s (1999:10) teacher talk is defines as speech used by teacher that is characteristically modified in four area: phonology, lexis (consisting of
morphology and vocabulary), syntax, and discourse.
Krashen in Zaidah (2014:10) defines that teacher is foreigner talk in the
classroom, the language of classroom management and explanantion, when it is in
the second language. He explains that the interlanguage talk as a simple code and
one of them is that they get their second language from what their teacher says. In
this case the teacher probably will not talk often. however, teachers can find other
This method is believed to be very useful in helping them to understand. In
addition to experiencing the changes in linguistics, they can also increase their
knowledge of the world. So, as more teachers explain using their second
language, this will help the students in increasing their knowledge of English.
Nunan (1991) state the teacher talk in second language teaching is a direct
input that the students can competence. This can achieved if the teacher talk has
two following characteristic: Clear
Teacher talk is says to be clear if the students do not find any difficulties
to understand it. It should be simple language and should not contain
ambiguity.
Effective Efficient
Teacher talk is says to be effective and efficient if the students can use it
actively, fluently and correctly after listening to it. Appropriate
Teacher talk is says to be appropriate if it is used according to the desired
situation and condition.
The kind of the language used by the teacher for instruction in the
classroom is known as teacher talk. For this term, Longman Dictionaryof
Language Teaching and Aapplied Linguistics, define it as “ that variety of
language sometimes used by the teacher when they are in the process of teahing,
in trying communicate wth learners, teacher o learner simplfy their speech, giving
it many of the characteristic of foreigner talk an other simplified styls of speech addressed to language learners” (Richards, 1992:471).
Ellis (2003) has formulated his own view about teacher talk: “Teacher talk is the special language that teacher use when addressing L2 learners in the classroom.
Studies of teacher talk can be divided into those that investigate the type of
language that teachers use in language classrooms and those that investigate in the
type of language they use in subject lessons. Teacher talk is used in class when
teachers are conducting instructions, cultivating their intellectual ability and
managing classroom activities (Qican, 1999) cited from Yan.
Teachers adopt the target language to promote their communication with
learners. In this way, learners practice the language by responding to what
theirteacher says. Besides, teachers use the language to encourage the
communication between learners and themselves. Therefore we can say teacher
talk is a kind of communication-based or interaction-based talk.
Allwright and Bailey claim that “ talk is one of the major ways that techers convey information to learners‟ and it is also “ one of th primary means of controling learner behaivor ” ( 1991, 139 ). Teacher talk also determines the succes or the failure of teaching and learning activity, so teachers have to adopt
the level of the language they use when talking to the student.
The definition Gos with Ellis‟ (1994: 26) define to teacher talk as the
porocess trought the teacher address classroom language learners. They make
adjustments to both language from on language function in oder tofacilitate
communication. The adjustments are referred to ask teacher talk.
Marzano (2010:1) states that teacher talk is a common language provides a
framework for a way to talk about instruction that is shared by everyone in a
feedback, collect and act upon data to monitor growth regarding thereasoned of
the stategies identified in the framework, and ajust proffesional development
needs againt the framework.
In addition, Cook (1991) assumed that teacher supplies more speech rather
than student in the classroom interaction. It is obsviously reasoable since the
teaching under the teacher overall guidance takes, not surpisingly,70persen
of the utterances in most classroom. This can be clearly ilustrared in he
following three main parts of the exchange of turn in classroom interaction :
1. Initiation, the teacher takes the intiative by requaring something of the
student trough a question. The move starts of the exchange, the teacher
acts as a leader.
2. Respond, the student answer the question whatever is required, so the move responds to teacher‟s initiation, the student acts a leader.
3. Feedback, the teaher does not directly take another intiation, but she or he gives feeback to the student‟s response, and feedback to the student‟s response wether it is acceptable or not.
The three srutures of inition, response, and feedback are very frequent to take
place in teaching which means that teacher talk is assumed to be highly contrubutive to students‟ foreign language competence and performance development.
Based on the concepts and the characteristics mentioned above, it can be said
that teacher talk the language produced by teachers addresse to the students in
classroom interaction and it is one of the important aspects in the teaching and
3. The Kinds of Management Talk
Language functions in term of instructional talk and management talk relate to teachers‟ role in the classroom as a teacher and a maneger (Brown, 2011). Instructional skills relates to teacher‟s explanantion about the subject matter the students, questions and respondses to students‟ questions and answers;
while management skill relates to giving effective direction and controlling students‟ discipline and behavior such as presence, reprimend, reward, encouraging and facilitating interaction.
Doff in Muhayyang (2010:31) devides two types of teacher talk,
instructional and management, instructional is employed to present the lesson or
language content. Instructional talk devided into 5 parts such as giving
explanation, giving direction, giving correction, asking question, and question.
Management talk is used to manage classroom activities. Management talk
divided into 20 parts such as entering the classroom, everyday greetings, meeting
a new class, talking the register, dealing with lateness, getting down to work,
starting something new, making things clear, sequencing activities,checking
progress, giving/taking turn, control and discipline,stopping,ending the class,
checking the time,setting homework,stopping work,making announcement,saying
goodbye, and clearing the classroom.
The management talk deals with the enforcement of classroom activities, such as entering the class, greeting students, arranging the students‟ seats, calling the rolls or checking the students‟ presence, dealing with lateness, starting something new, telling the objectives, checking the progress, stopping work,
transactional expressions that are used to manage the interaction in the class from
the very beginning to the very end of the class session (Rasyid, 2012: 1).
Doff (1993) in Rasyid (2012:14) divides classroom management talks into
fifteen language functions as follows: (1) Greeting, (2) Instruction, (3) Asking for
information, (4)Talk/chatting to students, (5)Checking attendance, (6)
Grouping/telling students where to sit, (7) Encouraging, (8) Giving turn,
(9)Thanking, (10) Apologizing, (11) Advising, (12) Acknowledging, (13) Asking
to do something, (14) Marker, and (15) Ending lesson/topic.
Then, Rasyid (2012:18-19) exposes some typical phases of classroom
activities (activitybased) that can be managed as the management talk are: (a)
Starting or beginning the lesson that can cover the activities as follows: (1)
Entering the classroom, (2) Everyday greeting, (3) Meeting a new class, (4)Taking
the Register, (5) Being late and dealing with the lateness, and (6) Getting down to
start; (b) Running the class which covers the activities as follows: (1) Beginning
with revision, (2) Starting something new, (3) Telling the objectives, (4) Making things clear/Checking students‟ understanding, (5) Sequencing activities, (6) Checking progress, and (7) Taking Turns; (c) Ending or closing the lesson which
consists of some stages f language function as follows: (1) Checking the time, (2)
Setting taking home assignment, (3) Stopping work, (4) Making announcement,
(5) Ending the lesson, (6) Saying good bye, and (7) Clearing the class.
It can be concluded that Management talk is the utterances or transactional
expressions that are used to manage the classroom interaction between teacher and
pupils in the class from the very beginning to the very end of the class session.
begining the class namely entering the classoom, everyday greeting,
meeting new class, takig the register, being late and dealing with lateness, gettin
down to start.
b. running the class
Running the class There are seven classroom activities in this phase,
namely beginning with revision, starting something new, telling the objectives,
making things clear/checking students‟ understanding, sequencing activities,
checking progress, taking turns.
c. Ending/ closing
This phase covers seven classroom activities, namely checking the time,
setting taking home assignment, stopping work, making announcement, ending
the lesson, saying good bye, clearing the class.
Teacher Talk as the time when the teacher is speaking. The kind of
language used by the teacher for manage in the classroom is known as teacher
talk. It is used to manage classroom activities. In manage the classroom activities;
the teacher needs to use language that understandable for students in order to get
the learning goals. The way teacher talk can affects students attitude in learning
4. Instructional Talk
The types of teacher talk which can be found in the classroom in context
of the teaching and learning, according to Nunan (1995: 189) are divided into
some areas covering explanation, questions, feedback and correction.
a. Giving explanation
Explanatin is a componentof teacher talk in which teachers introduce
information or new concepts to students. Nunan (1989: 27) says that the main
function of teacher talk is to provide explanation. Providing explanation is one of
the mainly pedagogic functions of teacher talk. During the classroom interaction,
teacher need to explain the lesson to have students understand the learning
material. They try to explain as clearly as possible so that the input that they
expose will be as much as possible taken by the students.
It is important for the teacher to speak effectively in eplaining the lesson
since the main purpose of theexplanation is to make student understand on what
the teaacher explanations. According to Wragg and Brown (1996) that an
explanation should help others to understand concept, cause-effects, procedures,
purposes, relationship, and process.
Giving explanation was giving detail information about teaching materials such as Who did…? What is…? When does…? Where is…? How does…? Why is…? (Brown, 1979). The untterances of giving detail information were shown below:
1. Aliyah is introduced hero (Who)
2. Everybody, Everyone, ladies and gentleman,is used to greet to others
3. They are used to greet others when you meet to one or many people,
(When).
4. They are used in meeting. (Where).
b. Asking question
Asking question is crucial component for devoloping interactive language
in teaching and learning process question need to distributed across participants in a way which allows for collaborative exploration of idea. Teachers‟, questions have been the focus of research attention it both content classroom and language
classroom for many years (Gerot as cited in Nunan 1999: 192). Most of the
findings show that teacher ask many question during the classroom interaction.
This indicates that a teacher should have a good skill of questioning to get more benefits as to give chance for the students speaking in English and check students‟ understanding on the lesson.
Some researchers also show that certain types of questioning behaivor
persisted over many years. Borg et. al., (1970) in Nunan (1999: 192) point of the
factual questions to determine wether or not students know basic information are
more frequent than higer-order questions which encourage students to reflect on
their knowledge, attitudes and beliefs, or which requeire them to follow trought
and justify a particular line of reasoning.
In relation to the question ask by teachers in the classroom ask by teachers
in the classroom, there are five kinds of questions that are frequently ask as their
purposes, namely, display question, clarification cheek, Gebhard (2000).
Display question in which the teacher already knows the answer and wants
related to narrative text many include : who is the participant in the story?, where
did the story take place?, other examples : when a teacher stand in of a student and ask, “what time is it?” the teacher asking the students to show their the knowledge on telling the time. Like wise, if the teacher asks, “what color is it?”
the teacher wants to see if the students know the English for the color.
Referential question is a question in which the teacher does not know the answer. For example, when a teacher stand in of a student and ask, “what yours favorite sport?” the teacher really does not know what is the favorite sport of the
student.
Coomperhension check is a question that a teacher uses to know wether a
student understands. The questions is a pose to ensure that a student follows what
is being explained. The general question for checking understanding is “do you understand?”.
Confirmation question is a type of question which is meant to verify what was said for example, “you said you got at five o‟clock?”.
Clarification check is a question to further define or clarify. For example, “did you say you want to write the answer on the board?”.
On the five question types, it has been observe that, in contast with

c. Giving corrections
According advanced Learner‟s Dictionary, correction is a change made to something in order to correct or imroved it. Futhemore, harmer (1981: 61) stated
the correction is indicating to the students that something is wrong or indicating to
the students that an error has been made and to give the students a change to
(know how to) get the new language.
Normally student will make mistakes in the process of learning and it is
vital part of the teacher‟s role to point out students‟ mistakes and provide
correction. In correcton, some spesific information is provided on aspects of the learners‟, performance, trough explanation, or previous of better or other
alternatives, or trough explanation, or provision of better or other alternativies, or
trough elicitation of these from the students (Brown, 2000: 205).
The question is now how to correction is expressing? According to Krashen‟s hypotheses that eror correction will work effectively if it is done according to the principles below :
Second language theory implies that when the goal is learning, error
should indeed be correct but not all times, and not all rules, even the goal is
learning. The theory maintains however, that error correction is not of use
acquisition occurs, according to the input for its meaning, not when they produce
output and focus on form.
The implications of second language acquestion theory are similar. If error
corection aims at leaning, it is logical to suppose tht the condition for error
corrections should be identical to the conditions for untilizing learning. We should
focus our student on form, and correct their errors, only when they have time and
such diversion of attention does not interfere with communication.
We should correct global error, error tat interfer with communication or
impede intelligility of a massage. Error that are the most stigmataze, that cause the
most unfavorale reactions, are the most important to correct. Error that occur most
frequently should be given t priority.
Second language acquisition theory predicts that error corroections will
show positive result only if the following condition aremeet : error correct are
limite to learnable and fortable, error are correct under condition that allow
monitor use. This will give the learner time to reconsider the rule that was
condition that allow monitor use, the allow the learner time to refer to his or her
consious knowledge, subject are “monitor user” example, they are not under users
of the monitor.
Furthemore, Ur (1991: 248) points out teacher should go for encouraging,
tactfull correction. The atudent has reliable intuitive knowladge about what kind
of correction helps most, that is student preferences do it in an insensitive way, the
student will feel upset and lose their confidance. In oder to the decide what kind
correction teachers think is bes and usefull for students, a good deal of sensitivy is
need. Therefore, teachers have to define what type of correction is suitable for
learning purposes.
According to the Hendrickson in Haryanto (1990) in Rahma (1995) that
there are two types of bassic correction, namely, dirrect correction and indirect
correction. Direct correction refers to the strategy, where by the teacher indicate
the location of errors using symbols or codes and provide the correct forms, on the other hand indirect correction refers to the strategy of treating student‟s error where by the location of errors are indicated by a variety of symbol or codes,
teachers do not provide the correct answer.
Generally the teachers always adopt the following techniques to correct students‟ errors (Ur, 1991 :249), the teachers does not react at all, the teacher indicates there is a mistakes, but does not provide any furthere informations about
what is wrong, the teacher says what was wrong and provides a model of the
acceptable version. That is explicit correction, the teacher indicates something
was wrong, elicits acceptable version from another member of the class, the
version, the teacher provides or elicits an explanantion of why to mistake, was
made and how to ovoid it.
d. giving feedback
Feedback is often uses to response to what a students has a performance
during the teaching and learning process. There are some ways in which feedback
can be classfications, but one of the most frequent and simplest distinctions is
beetween positive and negative feedback. For many years, behaivorist-inspired
research has found that positive feedback is much more effective than negative
feedback in changing tudent behaivor. Positive feedback has two principle
functions: to let students know that they have perfome correctly, and two icrreas
motivation trought praise (Nunan, 1999).
Furthermore, Ricards and Lockhart (1996:m 187) state that in language classroom, feedback on student‟s spoken language may be a response either to the content of what a student has produce or the from of on utterance. The provide
some strategies of giving feedback on content and feedback on from as follows:
the strategies to give feedback on content are, (1) acknowledging the correct answer by saying for the example, „Good‟, „Alright‟, (2) indicating an incorect answer by saying for example, „No, thats not quite right‟. (3) praising or giving complement for correct nswer by saying for example, „yes, an exelent answer‟. (4) expending or modifying a student‟s answer, the teacher can provide more information. (5) repiating, the teacher can repeat the same answer, (6) summarizing, the teacher can summarize the student‟s answer, (7) critizing, the teacher can critize the student‟s answer.
The following are some strategies to give feedback, on form (1) asking the
students to repeat what he/she said, (2) pointing out the error and asking the
student to self-correct, (3) commenting on an eror and explaining why it is wrong,
without having the students repeat the correct form, (4) asking another student to
correct the error form, (5) using a gesture to indicate than an error has been made.
In this functional analysis feedback, Boropy (1981), citied in (1999)
provides 12 guidelines for effective praises, namely, (1) it is delived contingenly,
(2) it spesifies the particulars of accomplishment, (3) it shows spontaneously,
variety, and other signs of credibility, suggest clear attention to the student‟s
accomplishment, (4) it rewards atainment of specified performance criteria, (5) it
provides information to students about their competence or the value of their
accomplishments, (6) it orients students toword better appretiation of their own
task related behaivor and thinking about problem solving, (7) it uses students own
prior accomplishments as the context for describing present accomplishment, (8)
it attributes to effortand ability, implying that similar succes can be expect in the
fiture, (9) it is fosters indigenous attribition (student believe that they expen effort
on the task because they enjoy the task/or want to develop task-relevant skills),
(10) it is foster appreciation of desirable atribution about, task-relevant behaivor
