THE QUALITY OF THE TEACHING AND LEARNING PROCESS APPLIED BY PROFESSIONAL ENGLISH TEACHERS OF SMP NEGERI 13 KOTA BENGKULU

This research aims to find out how the teaching and learning process is carried out by
two professional English teachers who teach class VII at SMP Negeri 13 Bengkulu
City. This research only looks at three components in the teaching and learning
process such as preliminary activities, core activities and closing activities with eight
main indicators and twenty-seven sub-indicators implemented by English teachers.
This study used descriptive qualitative method. Data collection was carried out
through checklist observations. Data analysis uses formulas and descriptions, then
there are four categories of Poor; Fair; Good; and Excellent. The results show that
overall the three components in the teaching and learning process have an average of
good quality. However, there are several sub-identifiers that are still in the fair
category, namely; lack of use of learning media; lack of carrying out the final
assessment; and lack of conveying the objectives to be achieved. So it can be
concluded that English teachers have an understanding of the teaching and learning
process even though there are still several sub-indicators that are still lacking in
implementation. However, in the teaching and learning process teachers are expected
to be able to optimize all sub-indicators in the learning process to obtain effective
learning results.
