Abstract

Designing learning activities is one of classroom management components which should be prepared by a teacher to teach. Potraying the preparation and the implementation of classroom management becomes a very
interesting and challenging thing to do especially in a classroom in which English is presented as a foreign language. This paper is discussing classroom management in two EFL Speaking classes with two lecturers and 50 students (25 students in each class) became the samples of the research. The focus of the classroom management itself covers five main aspects; the planning, the material and media, the activities, the classroom condition and the students’ participation during the teaching-learning process (TLP). The research was conducted through implementing three main instruments, they were; Teacher Interview, Classroom Observation and Questionnaire. The data revealed was analyzed through descriptive analytic method.The result showed that, first, the teaching planning was always designed in the form of mini lesson in each meeting. Second, The various material chosen was based on the students’ needs in their social life. Moreover, learning exposure was created through inviting Native English Teachers (NET). Another point revealed is that there was student-centered learning. The last, The students actively participated as a result of cooperative and collaborative works implemented in the learning process.On a whole, the lecturers had already implemented classroom management eventhough the implementation of it was still far from being perfect. The consideration in mananging the class is that both choosing the media and material become the two most important things to prepare.
