Authentic Materials in English Language Teaching
The teacher should combine the outdoor activity so the learner found out the topic and attract
their interest (Primadona & Prastiyowati, 2018). Teaching
English must need an
improvement. One of the ways is using of proper tool or materials such as authentic
materials. Creating innovative situation in teaching and learning
is what the teacher must
do. Several researches through teaching using authentic materials from many skills have
been reviewed.
Experiment that Beresova (2015) done through
enhacing language acquisition and cultural
awareness
indicates that authentic materials influence the reader in modified text which has
a college students as the subject. Even they admit that using authentic
materials are they
favorite. Authentic materials are great for university students. They will be awware of the
issue. It is one of solution to develop their critical thinking. The similarity is both, Beresvova
and researcher uses authentic materials as the tools to teach english language. But it has
different thing by collecting the data. Beresvova uses Experiment for college student while
researcher uses literary review as the method. Based on Beresvova finding, it has gap and
less understandable about the explanation for the students. So the researcher can interpret
that it must be guided by the teacher even for University students. Educator also able to gain
the student’s critical thinking through authentic materials. Supported by Richards (2001)
who stated that english communication must take place and stimulate in real worlds. It is
true to find something related to the recent news and recent happening in the world. Because
natural even will atrract more for students. Talking their favorite topic and implement it to
the learning goals is the perfect way to deliver the lesson. Correlating
to the authentic
materials Harmer (1991) stated that authentic material is an original text which natural
condition is brought up for the students. In other words, we bring their world into the class,
it is also suitable to cultural context and fit in the real life ( Roger & Medley, 1998).
Furthermore, authentic material can be applied in many english skill to be taught such as
listening, writing, and reading.
Starting to the effectiveness the use of authentic materials in listening. Remembering that
Authentic Material basically focused on the natural situation, cultural context being as the
communicative approach (Mallapiang, 2014). The studies aim to give more vocabulary to
secondary
student through authentic, in hope that they able to speak more using English.
According to Mallapiang (2014), using Authentic Materials is hughly recommended for
teacher during learning process. The study also gave suggestion about writing as an output.
The researcher analysed that listening is better to be taught using authentic materials. It
should come from natural sources like song, or conversation in the movie, short movie with
the subtitle. Those kind of techniques will be more accepted. The video, the movie or the
sound should be based on topic which can attract them and happening right now. They will
get more vocabularies when they get more. The similarity of the studies between Mallapiang
(2014) and Ghaderpanahi (2012) is Authentic has succeed implemented in listening skill.
Both research has proved it through experimental using pre test and post test but the subject
