TEACHER’S STRATEGY IN TEACHING SPEAKING DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC

Abstract

Due to The Covid-19 Pandemics all the educational sectors around the world needed to be closed. As a response to that Governments worldwide announced the necessity to shift traditional learning to online learning. Schools and teachers were required to implement online learning in a matter of days developing their knowledge and skills for teaching in remote and flexible contexts. Teachers have to learn new strategies and use a variety of strategies for teaching during this online learning. One of the most important skills to learn is speaking, because based on regulations from the minister of education and culture on the 2013 curriculum, students must understand speaking well because it is an important skill in communicating English. When students are able to communicate in English they can express their ideas and will encourage the development of fluency in their English speaking. For that reason, teachers must use new strategies so that teaching and learning can still continue. This paper will focus on the strategies to implement speaking effectively in learning.
