Abstract:
Some issues found that English competencies are at a low level to be mastered by the students.
Hence, the additional course is needed to help the low achievers in mastering learning. A number of
approaches have been applied to develop students' English achievement. Remedial teaching is the
incentive course for remedial students in raising mastery competencies. Therefore, this study
attempted to explore EFL teacher raise the low level students' mastery learning through remedial
class. This study employed qualitative research, specifically a case study with English teacher who
taught both in regular class and remedial class and the low level students called as remedial students
as participants. The results revealed that remedial teaching offered a great opportunity to help
remedial students in mastery learning enhancement through the treatment given by the teacher and
remedial students success in reaching the English threshold. However, it did not rule out the
possibility that remedial students still failed in remedial class. This is because several external factors
such as the students' activeness and passiveness, class attendance, time management, and remedial
test result. In a nutshell, remedial teaching is expected to help the students in enhancing their
learning results. |
