Abstract

People can communicate their ideas, thoughts and feeling to other people in oral or written form of language. The communication mostly can run well if it is done by using a native language or a language that people understand best. By contrast, a lot of people usually feel difficult when they must express their opinions and feelings in speaking or writing by using a foreign language or a language that they do not master. In the con text of Indonesia,particularly at faculty of Social and Politics, University of Tulungagung, English is one foreign language that the majority students do not master yet. It is not surprising that they are less competent in English writing skill. They are hindered by lack knowledge of grammar,vocabulary and do not have sufficient ability to organize ideas in a good writing.Under this regard, helpful teaching media like pictures are supposed to be a possible prescription as scaffolding to guide them producing well organized writing. Further, the use of pictures can increase the students’ achievements in writing ability.

Abstract

The essential function of the language helps people sharing what they think and feel by oral or written form of language to others. Empirically and theoretically noted, the communication often fails delivering the message if the language used is not the native language of the communicators. Misunderstanding sometimes occurs not only because of the meanings of words used look unfamiliar but also the lack of ability to arrange the true sentences to express idea, thought and feeling. In the context of Indonesia, particularly at faculty of Social and Politics, University of Tulungagung, the students ‘attainment in English is not good when they are assigned to have the writing practices. Their poor mastery in vocabulary and grammar make them difficult to finish the writing tasks. Having look what happen to the students, the English teacher should be innovative to perform the teaching performance which is helpful to tackle the student’s problem.
