English Teacher Should Has Education Background

Language is a tool of communication. Every nation has their own language to communicate

with others. Some of the languages become the top of the global languages. These languages are

English, Arabic, and Mandarins. But the most famous language is English. However, many people

have known English because English is the most global spoken language. Because of that, if a man

wants to be a competent in global world, of course he / she have to have ability in English.

Every people consider that English is the International language. English can make people

from different country communicate each other although they didnt understand the other

language, but by being understood English language; they can speak to other nation easily. English

can be the first language or the second language in some countries, such as British English,

American English, and Australian English. These names of English are used as the first language

in these countries. Although some countries have their own language or mother language, they also

use English as their second language even they use English in their daily communication.

English is also used in speaking or writing by many people around the world. Furthermore,

we also will find manual instructions of many things written in English. The simple example is in


2/8

instant noodles pack, English writing is used in ingredients, or in how to make the noodles

(cooking instruction). Or in Indonesian advertisement, sometimes they mix the Indonesian and

English language to make one sentence or to make their tag line of their commercial show.

Besides the above factors, the most easily seen in the importance of English is that the most top

requirements in looking for and getting for job is the ability in using English although passive or

active. The job applicants who have ability in English are more acceptable than the other who has

not.

Because of these factors, English become one of the sources of the peoples income.

Because many people want to have ability in English, so it makes many English courses appear in

every region. And of course, English teacher become one of many favorite job which are lacking

for. In fact, we can not refuse that many graduation of English language, especially English

education are acceptable in many job field. And because of that, many graduation of senior high

school choose English education as their majority in university. Because they think that by having

ability and certificate in teaching, they can be a teacher, and of course they will be accepted in

every school or at least in English course or moreover they can make a job field by built an English

course. Although there are many graduation of senior high school choose English education as the

their majority in university, there are still many school and English course which are lacking

human resources to teach English in their school.

However, many people are competing in looking for job by relied on English ability as the

one of their source of income. One of the promising job of having English ability is being the

travel guide for foreigner is one of the sources of income which is looked for people. Because as

we know, being a travel guide is very different than being a teacher in school or in organization or


3/8

moreover as a private teacher. If teaching English at school or private, we as a teacher must teach

about how to make a good sentence or we called it as study of structure, but in travel guide, the

structure of the sentences is not very important thing. The important thing in being a travel guide is

we can understand each other what of our opposite speaks about.

The easiest job which we can get by having English ability is being a teacher in English

course or as a private teacher (teacher door to door). Because of that, many people who did not

graduate from English education, teaching English in school or being a private teacher. This case

occurs because there are many people who want to have ability in English, whether it is in writing

or in speaking, and moreover whether it is passive or active.

My thesis in this essay is that there are many people who are not graduated from English education

can be teaching English in some school and also in English course or moreover as a private teacher

in some houses, and actually the English teacher should have education background.

Based on this situation, actually education is the main factor of nations and country

development, because of that, to increase the education quality, the school must prepare the good

skillful resource man to make it balance. Teacher as educator should have the basic teaching skill

or we know it as the competency of teaching. Because by having a competency of teaching, the

teacher is hoped that there will be an effective situation teaching process that can be brought a

feedback relationship between teacher and students, students and students. But in fact, there are not

many of the resource man want to be a teacher because they think by being a teacher, their life is

not improve because as we know, the salary of teacher is very in small amount.

Furthermore, besides the competency of teaching, the teacher must have a professionalism

because professionalism is one of the requirements to held a good teaching learning process for


4/8

getting the goal. It becomes a reference to determine that is the output good or not. One of the

indicators of professionalism in education institution is running a job description in education

process. The material of the lesson that delivered by teacher must be suitable with the teachers

education background.

The goal of professionalism can be fulfilled if it is held education because of the good

process. The wishes which are concept is the improvement and the usage of the human potential as

the source of think. So, the changing will happen from the bad side into a good one by teaching

learning process.

Many citizens or moreover the education expert thinks that one of the professionalism in

education process is a teacher must teach a subject of study which is suitable with his / her

education background. What is to be taught must be suitable with the department that he / she took

when she / he in university. If she / he graduated from the mathematic department, of course she /

he must teach mathematic. Because based on our mind, a mathematics bachelor must be fluency

in teaching mathematic than art. And thats so on, to make it more effective and efficient.

But, if the problem is in practice of mainstream in this country, of course they will appear

some question that is Does the education process in Indonesia have applied a well job

description?

The answer may be yes, but of course must be not all of them, because there are so many

institution of education in Indonesia which given facility to the student such as teacher who

teaches the subject of study which is not appropriateness with his / her education background.

Consider or not, this majority has happened in institution of education which is in the village or in

isolated region. And again, the most specific is the institution of education in elementary school.


5/8

For the education expert, of course this problem is very dramatic, because they think that the

education process like that will not run as well as maximal. The expert of education also thought

that the inapproriatness of the job description is one of the factors which are caused the educations

quality in Indonesia is very far from the western country and moreover our own neighborhood

country like Malaysia or Singapore. The worst job description is a sign of the collapse of the

quality in education process.

But this thought will be rejected if this professionalism which is based on the

appropriateness of the teacher taught the subject of lesson with his graduation is asked with one of

the question How about if there is a teacher who teach inappropriateness with his / her subject of

lesson or graduation but his teaching is better than the teacher who teach appropriateness with the

subject of the lesson or graduation? As I told about in the some cases above, of course there is

many person like that, and in fact, fortunately the students who are taught by her / him are more

easily understand with this teacher than the teacher who are teach appropriateness with his / her

department when he / she in the university. This is more than a competency that he / she has, a

competency that is more than education background that he / she has.

Considering what this teacher has did, of course it is very sad if the obligated people asked

he / she to move from this job to his / her appropriateness educations background. But if it is

continued, the teacher who is appropriateness with the subject of study will not get a job. As we

seen, in English course, there are some teachers who are not come from English education.

Moreover they come from linguistic department. And the funniest thing is the owner of the English

course accepts them as the teachers in the English course. Actually, it can not happen, because it is

same with decreasing the field of job for people who graduated from English education. And the


6/8

linguistic department should consider this, because however, every department has had each job of

the job field.

Besides English course and some of elementary school in village or isolated region used

teachers who are not appropriateness with their department they brought, there are also some

school in big city used them. These schools are plus national schools. Plus national schools are

schools that put international curriculums like foreign language as their communication media.

And because English is the international language, so the language that they used and the

curriculum wants is English. This plus national school is the completing action of national

education department Indonesia for national school in comparison side between teachers and

students. Except that, there is international standart which is used to prepare the students in this

globalization era. To fulfill these requirements, plus national school used teachers who have ability

in speak English without consider their education background. Nowadays, there are so many

teacher whom their education background is non-education in bachelor teach in plus national

school. Teacher non-education is teacher who never gets knowledge about the competency in

teaching which of absolutely has gotten by the teachers of education.

Phenomenons which appear in teachers non-education is happening turn-over or move

from the job which can happen moreover in the middle of study year or moreover in the middle of

semester which is done by the teachers who are from non-education. The job moving which they

done is because they have found job which is very appropriateness with their education

background, such as working in the office, being a travel guide, etc. One of the causes of happen

the job moving is commitment. Commitment is the important thing for researched because the

teachers commitment is the important factor in education and students achievement, especially

for the young students who are very need teachers commitment to help them in their growth


7/8

process. The young students here means that the students in play group or kindergarten and

moreover students in Elementary school.

In commitment side, there are some differences in jobs commitment between teacher who

graduated from education and who is not. For example in how long they will be survive in that

school. For teacher who graduated from education, of course they will fell enjoy in doing their job

as teacher, but for the teachers who did not graduated from education will feel bored and of course

they will find the other job which is appropriateness with their department when they took in

university, although they have ability in English at least, but they did not have the competency in

teaching and how to solve students problem in class.

When there are teacher who graduated from education and there are who did not, of course

there are some differences in teaching between of them. For example, the students will easily

understand if they are taught by the teacher who graduated from education because at least the

teacher knew how to teach the students and how deliver the material of study; we know it as the

competency; while when the teacher who graduated not from education or we called it as non-

education taught in school, of course the students can not easily understand than the teachers who

are from education, because surely they did not know how to teach or deliver the material of study

because they never get it in their department when they were in university.

Considering some effect mentioning above about the non-education teacher can teach

English and the other subject of study at school or English course, the government should make

rules about this incident, except to make the students can understand the lesson easily, that can also

make the teacher who is from education did not lose their job as a teacher, and of course it is also

improve the quality of education in Indonesia.


8/8

In my opinion, the teacher especially English teacher should have education background to

teach in school, English course, and moreover as a private teacher in some houses.
