ABSTRACT
This research attempted to find out the speaking learning strategies used by the
fifth semester students of English Education Study Program of IAIN Palopo. This
research applied the descriptive quantitative method. The researcher used the
Strategy Inventory for Language Learning (SILL) questionnaire conducted by
Oxford (1990) that was translated into Bahasa Indonesia and adapted by
Muhammad Iksan (2015) to find out the learning strategies used by students. This
research population were the students in the fifth semester of English Education
Study Program of IAIN Palopo. The sample was taken by using purposive
sampling technique. The number of the sample were 30 students. The data
analysis showed that students used all of the six learning categories of Oxford
strategies; memory strategies, cognitive strategies, compensation strategies,
metacognitive strategies, affective strategies, and social strategies. But for the
most frequently used strategies were metacognitive strategies with mean score
was 4.09. The reason was because metacognitive strategies is a flexible learning
strategies for students and help them to become independent leaners. The students'
types as the Language Learning Strategies user categorized as the medium user
with the mean score was 3.48 with 18 students classified as the high user learners,
12 students classified in the medium level, and none of the students classified as
the low user.

students in learning the second language is influenced by context and how the

and create a supportive learning environment in the classroom. The teacher should

From some of the experts' statements above, the researcher can conclude
that speaking is an essential tool for communicating and express our idea in daily

The six popular strategies used show that students tend to monitor their learning
process and evaluate what and how well they had learned.
Based on the interview with several students about the reason why did
they choose metacognitive strategies as the most used learning speaking strategies
at home, it found that students are more comfortable to choose their own way of
learning and they feel that metacognitive strategies are flexible and suitable for
that. They prefer to seek new methods of learning, which according to them can
help in improving their speaking skills. Besides that, according to the conditions
of this pandemic, their socialization are limited. Therefore they must be able to be

Wael et al., (2018) ; Itania (2014) have contrast finding with this research.
The result shows that students frequently used memory strategies in their learning.
It explained that students commonly use imagery and visual connection. The other
reason is students think that memory strategies are the straightforward strategies
to use. With memory strategies, they can control their speaking design properly.
They can memorize a variety of vocabulary quickly, and it makes them easier to
talk because they can capture what their friends are talking about. Besides, they
can apply the strategy in daily activities, such as watching a movie, and it is easier
to remember the vocabulary from the movie that they can use when they are
speaking.

INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPTS
speaking dari rumah, metacognitive strategy menjadi strategi yang paling banyak
dengan memantau, merancang, dan merefleksikan proses belajar. Apa alasan anda
memilih lebih banyak menggunakan strategi tersebut dalam belajar speaking dari
rumah?
B. Answer
menurut saya.. eh, itu toh lebih mudah untuk saya. Lebih mudah untuk saya
belajar bahasa Inggris karena bisaka atur diriku sendiri. Karena lebih saya suka
saya temukan caraku sendiri untuk belajar dibandingkan eh.. orang lain yang atur
ka begitu. Karena saya yang akan belajar, saya yang berusaha pahami jadi lebih
kusuka cari caraku sendiri. Kayak itu yang poin “memperhatikan kesalahan saya
menjadi lebih baik”, eh seringka kayak misalnya kudapat eh sesuatu dari buku, oh
ternyata begini pale yang betulnya, selama ini yang saya bilang salah. Biasa saya
terapkan ke diri ku, oh berarti kalau begini ka tidak boleh ka lagi bilang begitu.
Terus, selaluka sebenarnya cari cara untuk menjadi seorang pembelajar bahasa
Inggris yang lebih baik, dan lewat apa postingan postingan di ig tentang akun-
akun bahasa Inggris biasa saya ambil kalau main ig ka. Kulihat lagi ada informasi-
informasi atau materi-materi yang bisa berguna untuk saya. Terus eh, ada itu poin
yang saya mengatur jadwal agar saya memiliki waktu yang cukup untuk belajar
bahasa inggris, karena kan sibuk ka toh diwarung ka biasa, jadi saya cari sendiri
curi curi waktu begitu. Saya siasati dengan itumi dengan baca kayak yang ada
bahasa Inggrisnya, even tidak saya tau apa artinya atau tidak pahamka, yang
penting saya baca. Paling tidak adalah satu dua kata yang bisa saya serap begitu.
Menurutuku ini cara yang efektif untuk saya belajar karena, eh waktunya itu lebih
fleksibel. Bisaka atur sendiri waktu ku, terus lebih gampang saya cerna begitu.
Respondent II: jadi alasanku pilih metakognitif itu karena selama belajar
dari rumah itu lebih sedikit waktuta untuk bersosialisasi, jadi haruski pilih sendiri
cara ta untuk belajar bahasa Inggris, apalagi speaking. Jadi dari situ metakognitif
mahasiswa bahasa Inggris. Kayak misalnya ada itu poin yang saya selalu berfikir
tentang perkembangan saya dalam belajar bahasa Inggris, itu karena ada tujuan
yang mauka capai, yaitu tingkatkan speaking ku, makanya kalau tidak
perkembangan itu saya selalu cari cara lain lagi dalam belajar yang lebih cocok
sama saya.
Respondent III: oke jadi perkenalkan nama saya A. Huzni, saya dari
kelas Big D semester 5. Jadi eh kenapa saya memilih metode metakognitif karena
saya merasa bahwa saya suka untuk mencoba segala cara, mencoba segala
metode-metode yang saya fikir cocok untuk saya. Saya suka mencoba hal-hal
yang baru. Maka dari itu saya selalu mencari tahu apa yang saya fikir cocok
dengan saya. Nah juga em, saya tidak bisa belajar bahasa Inggris secara monton,
maka dari itu saya menggunakan cara metakognitif, karena metakognitif kesannya
lebih fleksibel dan juga eh, lebih ke kognitif. Lebih ke metode belajar yang selain
dari, yang kinestetik maksud saya. Maka dari itu saya memilih metode
metakongnitif. Terimakasih.
Respondent IV: jadi ada beberapa hal atau beberapa alasan saya memilih
percakapan bahasa Inggris, baik itu ketika dilakukan oleh diri saya sendiri
maupun ketika dilakukan oleh orang lain. Karena dari hal tersebut saya bisa
melihat ekspresi, saya dapat mendengarkan pronounciation, dan juga saya dapat
mempelajari ciri khas dari masing masing orang ketika melakukan percakapan
bahasa Inggris. Nah hal ini lebih mempermudah saya untuk mengingat vocabulary,
mengingat sentence yang pernah mereka katakan. Berbeda halnya ketika saya
hanya melihat teks tanpa melihat ekspresi dan juga mengengarkan pronounciation.
Nah yang kedua, eh saya sangat senang mencari metode-metoe baru dalam sistem
Inggris. Hal ini sangat berguna karena sebagian besar waktu saya di zaman online
bersosial media dalam waktu yang lama, ada hal-hal yang dapat saya pelajari.
Walaupun itu hanya sepatah dua kata, tapi itu dapat mengimprove dan juga
menambah wawasan saya dalam berbahasa Inggris. Yang ketiga, saya juga selalu
jadi saya selalu mengoreksi hal hal yang keliru pada diri saya. Saya selalu mencari
metode-metode baru, mencari hal-hal baru, yang kiranya dapat menambah dan
juga memerbaiki kemampuan saya dalam bahasa Inggris. Eh saya rasa sekian,
terimakasih.
karena saya orang yang cenderung tidak bisa menerima pelajaran dengan baik
ketika saya tidak merasa nyaman dengan cara belajar saya. Saya cenderung lebih
menyukai cara belajar yang saya dapatkan sendiri dan saya akan mecarinya
sendiri. Mulai dari mencari sendiri makna kata yang tidak saya pahami di google,
