sense of stress that the students may feel when they would face a serious problem in their
activity.
b. Participant
The teacher could act as the participant who helps the students inside of the students. It
would be a good idea when the teachers are giving their additional information to support the
discussion or the role-play of the students has. In that way the teacher could prompt the students
covertly, encouraging the students to actively involved in the classroom. However, in some
terms, the teachers should not dominate the activity itself which could be drawing all the
students attention to the teachers.
c. Feedback Provider
Harmer (2001: 276) stated the vexed question of when and how to give feedback in
speaking activities is answered by considering carefully the effect of possible different
approaches. It reflects that the result of the teaching learning activity is depending on the teacher
respond to the varieties activities that students do in the classroom.
WHAT IS LEARNING?
Learning is a process of change from one mental setting into another. In a simple way, it
not only makes the people know, understand or do the lessons but also change their behavior and
their manner expected from the set program. Learning can be optimized by the present of the
teacher who makes the learning more effective, although learning could be done without it and
could be achieve everywhere, anywhere, anytime. In contrary, teacher could not stand alone
without its learners.
As the explanation above, although the learners could learn anything and everywhere, it
still needs a teacher to guide him, because the purpose of learning is not only the knowledge, but
also behavior or manner. The teacher must be able to help the learning process happen and make
it more effective. Therefore, teaching becomes ineffective when at the end of the class students
have not achieved any learning.
