1.1 The Main of Material
The material that have beenpresentedin this presentation was about
“Language Learning Approach and Methodology”. The contents ofthe material is
divided into 6 method, there are direct method, method restrictions, intensive
method, audio-visual method, linguistic method, and integral approach.
This material explained that Learning Strategy is a teacher of learning
activities undertaken with the aim of the learning process that takes place in the
classroom can achieve (goals) to effectively and efficiently. Learning strategy is
still conceptual, necessary for the implementation of certain teaching methods.The
approachis a set ofassumptions regardingthe nature

task, so they can get the optimal result from their learning.
Approach and methodology of language learning can be divided into two
form : Formal Approach and Functional Approach. Functional Approach will
appear language learning method, such as Direct Method, Method Restrictions,
Intensive methode, Audio-Visual Method, Linguistics Method, and Integral
Approach.
"Direct Method is a method of teaching a foreign language, especially a
modern language through conversation, discussion and reading in the language
itself without use of the pupil's language, without translation and without the
study of formal grammar. The words are first taught by pointing to object or
picture or by performing action." The general goal of the Direct Method is to
provide learners with a practically useful knowledge of language.
Method Restriction are all method that need to be restriction in languge
learning. Method Restriction is langage teaching by using Method which directly
studied to student which be adapted with the condition of the student.
Intensive method is a strategy of intensive study how the students improve
their language. Intensive methods are very supportive and help the student in the
language tutorials.
Audio lingual strategy is an approach to language learning that based on

behaviouris ideology in our daily.
Linguistics method is will enable you to explore language on a sound
theoretical basis and to apply these linguistic skills in foreign language teaching.
Integral approach is reveals the interior side of life,sees developmental
stages,and recognizes and respects the individual and collective domains.

1.2 TechnicalPresentation
In this presentation, our team use Microsoft Power Point as our media of
presentation. In the Power Point we just type a general material of our
presentation. And then one by one of our member tell about the materials. We
read the text on the Power Point and then explain it with our own words. So, the
audience can easy to understand what we mean.
1.3 The Situation of Presentation
In this presentation, we can say that the condition in the class was quite
conducive. Unfortunately, sometimes, when presenters tell about the materials,
there are participants who ignore and not focus, that is very disturbing the
presenter, because presenters feel less attention. So, it is very distraction in telling
the materials. But, in general, we succesful handle the audience to be respect and
focus in our presentation.
The audience feel enthusiastic when presenters give apportunity to them,
to asked Question. We discuss about their question. In this activity can build
communication between the presenters and the audience. And at the end of our
presentation, we give some question to them. This question was giventocheck
iftheyfocusto our presentation or not, whetherthey understandor notabout
thematerials.
1.4 Asked Question and Discussion
Related with our materials, there are some questions which asked by
participant. The Question are:
1. From Neng Ariyanti:
If we as a teacher, what is the best method which can be used in language
learning?
Our team give explanation : we cannot say which one is the best
method or which one is useless. But, all of the method is important
to use in teaching language learning, because those are part of the
4. strategy. As a teacher we should choose which one method which
suitable with our material and suitable with the condition of our
student. All of method can be used by the teacher. Just depent on
our needed. For example : if we should teach “Listening”, we
should use Audio-Visual Method, if we want to practice speaking
directly, we can use Direct Method,etc.

2. From Aprilia Purwanti:
Please give explanation about interior and exterior in integral method!
Our team give explanation :Integral approach is reveals the interior
side of life,sees developmental stages,and recognizes and respects
the individual and collective domains. Reveals the interior side of
life is retains the existing practices that focus on the "exterior"
components of life, such as biological systems, economic
initiatives, social organizing, governance and sustainability, and
also works with the interior components, such as worldviews,
value-systems and epistemologies. These interior parts of society
inform our opinions and decision-making, essentially guiding the
ways we make meaning of our surroundings and interactions.
3. From Syifa Khairunnisa:
Please explain about 3 elements of language learning, and give example!
Our team give explanation :A language learning approach consist
of the following three elements:
1. Views about the nature of language,
As a teacher if we want to teach of language learning we should
know about the nature of language, it is very important for teacher
to know about that. Example : The history of foreign language it
self. Where that language appear, when that language firstly use,
etc.
2. Beliefs about language learning,
5. As a teacher if we want to teach of language learning we also
should belief about language learning. We should belief that
language which will we teach is important and easy to understand,
so we can easy to teach our student. Example: give our student
suggestion to beliefs about language learning, so they can more
understand about what we teach in that language.
3. Ideas about how the above should be applied practically to
language learning and teaching.
As a teacher we should have ideas to applied practically of
language learning and teaching. Teachers have different ideas or
method to teach their students. That ideas is very important.
Because it can make us different with other in teaching language
learning. So, the student can known recognize our method in
teaching based on our ideas. Example: there are teacher who teach
reading, used idea at the very first time is Reading For Pleasure.

Strategy class.This reportcontain of all about our presentation. Which consist of
The Main of Material, TechnicalPresentation, The Situation of Presentation,
Asked Question and Discussion, and Result of Their Discussion.
2.2 Suggestion
We would be familiar with the terms of approaches, strategies, methods,
techniques, and learning models. But many of the students education (prospective
teachers) and even the teachers who do not understand in depth, so it can not
explain what exactly the similarities and differences of these terms. So, as a
teacher we should understand in depth what is similarities and differences about
approaches, strategies, methods, techniques, and learning models. So, we can
applied it. And can explain clearly to our student. That’s very important for us as
a teacher. But, equallyimportantis thatthe teachermust be able toevaluate
theteachingand learning activitiestomake progressin learning. And as the teacher
we also should know all of the method in teaching language. So the teacher we
can applied that method in every lesson which suitable with the material and
suitable with the condition of the student.
