learning activities. The position of the teacher is an important position in the world of
education, especially in formal education institutions. Therefore, the certification policy for
teachers and lecturers is indeed a strategic step to be able to improve the quality of education
in Indonesia.
Teacher competency is a set of mastery abilities that must exist within the teacher in
order to be able to realize performance appropriately and effectively. While professional
teachers are teachers who have special abilities and expertise in the field of teacher training
so that they are able to carry out their duties and functions as teachers with maximum
abilities.
The teacher is a person who is very influential in the teaching and learning process. It
is proper for a teacher to be given welfare in the form of certification. It is understandable

certain requirements, namely having academic qualifications, competence, physical and
spiritual health, and having the ability to realize national education goals accompanied by

explained the lesson and also some of them are not interested to study English
because of confuse, but don't worry about these i have many methods to teach my
students, so thay will enjoy my lesson and active in my class and most of them

complicated but i enjoy my mylife because i manage my time. And also i can
divide my time to my students”

3. What efforts should be made by a teacher in developing his professionalism

especially for English teachers?
“The effort that needs to be done by teachers to develop their professional, namely
the first curriculum 13 which applies in schools in English learning we need to
 develop learning but we are still in curriculum 13 although it is different from the
previous curricula I think this curriculum is very strong because the government
has changed the second curriculum of the method of distribution what needs to be
developed as an English teacher we need to multiply the method because in
today's era students get bored with old methods. Then the third thing that needs to
be developed is the teacher himself because many teachers who teach are only
fixated on the book even though they should be able to learn outside of the
contents of the book but still be related to the material the students want to
achieve. If a teacher is smart then students will also be smart because the teacher
must pass on his knowledge to his students”

able to manage classes and learning and is able to utilize learning media. then,
Social where the teacher is able to communicate with his students and understand
what he wants by his students and transfer the knowledge he has to his students
and the last personality where a teacher is required to be a person who reflects a
good teacher and is able to make his students obedient. And students can imitate
the good behavior of a teacher”

5. What efforts have you made in developing the professionalism of teachers,

especially English teachers?

over. I also made my students English club to make them active in English later.

when at school and as a mother when at home”

students he teaches maybe from ordinary teaching to extraordinary”
