Abstract

The Asean Economic Community (AEC) which is initiated by Ten ASEAN countries allows people to do free trading, working, studying and moving across the region. This condition requires people to use English more in every aspect of life. This paper attempts to analyze the needs of second year midwifery students in learning English. The data were gathered from questionnaire and sample of students’ work. The results were used to find out the students’ necessities, lacks and wants. The result of questionnaires and sample of students’ works discovered that the students want to learn English which is associated with daily life. However they still have a lack of using proper grammar and word selection. Thus, the midwifery students need to acquire four skills altogether to improve their ability in using the language. The language skills cover oral communication, giving response to the conversation, understanding English literature and preparing written text. It is suggested for lecturers to provide authentic materials as teaching resources which correlate to the compulsory subjects that they take in Midwifery Department.
