1. LISTENING
The problem of students in
mastering listening and the solution:
a)
Problem making
prediction what the speaker talk about.
b)
Problem recognizing the main
points in listening comprehension.
c)
Problem guessing
unknown words or phrases.
It is always faced
by most of the students. Therefore, students can overcome this problem by using
strategy to use the clues which are the words or phrase coming after the
unknown words. Nevertheless, students have to make sure that they do not spend
much time on guessing the unfamiliar word or they will miss the speakers next
point.
d) Problem
unfamiliar topics in listening material. Based on the research students always
faces this problem. Thus, the solution for this problem is to ask the students
to practice as much as they can on these various materials.
e)
Problem in kind
of accents. This problem is always experienced by the students if they do not
have knowledge about the kinds of accents. Most of the students just know two
kinds of accents namely British and Ameican accents but they cannot
differentiate them. To solve this problem, make the students aware of
differents native speaker accents.
f)
Problem length
and speed of the listening
The students can
overcome it by using skill. One of skill is note taking and it seems to be the
most useful way when students have to face a long task in listening. This will help students to remember the main points or the precise information.
The question here is that how students can write down what they hear as quickly as they could so that they
will not miss the other ideas. It is supposed that students should write
down the main point.
g)
Problem in linking word
Commonly the students are difficult
to get the main idea or main points of
the maerial because they are lack of linking words. Thus, they do not
understand what the content of the material is about.
