Abstract

This study aims to describe the English vocabulary learning strategies applied by teacher in teaching hearing impairment students in Special Needs Schools (SLB). This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of interviews, questionnaires, and documentation. The subject in this study was an English teacher in a special needs school. The results show that the teacher applies several learning strategies, namely visual strategies (the use of pictures, writing, demonstrations, sign language, and facial expressions), an individual approach (adapting materials and methods to students' needs), a thematic approach (connecting vocabulary to everyday life contexts), and a multisensory approach (a combination of visual, tactile, and kinesthetic). The teacher also uses technological media such as Kahoot and interactive videos. In addition, the practice of teaching phonetics using the sound vibration technique was found, namely by asking students to touch the teacher's neck to feel the sound produced. These strategies have been proven to help hearing impairment students understand and remember English vocabulary. This study supports the theory of mnemonics and visual learning strategies and provides a practical contribution to language teaching for students with special needs.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan strategi pembelajaran bahasa Inggris yang diterapkan oleh guru dalam mengajar siswa dengan gangguan pendengaran di Sekolah Luar Biasa (SLB). Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara, angket, dan dokumentasi. Subjek dalam penelitian ini adalah seorang guru bahasa Inggris di SLB. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru menerapkan beberapa strategi pembelajaran, yaitu strategi visual (penggunaan gambar, tulisan, pencetakan, bahasa isyarat, dan ekspresi wajah), pendekatan individual (penyesuaian materi dan metode sesuai kebutuhan siswa), pendekatan tematik (mengaitkan pemahaman dengan konteks kehidupan sehari-hari), serta pendekatan multisensori (kombinasi visual, taktil, dan kinestetik). Guru juga menggunakan media teknologi seperti Kahoot dan video interaktif. Selain itu, ditemukan praktik pengajaran fonetik dengan teknik getaran suara, yaitu dengan meminta siswa menyentuh leher guru untuk merasakan produksi bunyi. Strategi-strategi tersebut terbukti membantu siswa tunarungu dalam memahami dan mengingat ilmu bahasa Inggris. Penelitian ini mendukung teori mnemonik dan strategi pembelajaran visual serta memberikan kontribusi praktis dalam pengajaran bahasa untuk siswa berkebutuhan khusus.
