Key words : Speech Acts, Pragmatic, Qualitative Analysis,
English teaching

The purposes of this study was to identify the types of speech acts
performed by the English teacher in English teaching and learning process at MTs
Al-Wahhab Bago Kradenan on the basis of Searle‟s theory of speech acts and to
identify the most dominant kind of speech act. This research was descriptive-
qualitative in nature. More specifically this research was classified as a case study.
The object of this study was the utterances uttered by the English teacher of MTs
Al-Wahhab Bago Kradenan during the teaching and learning practices.
The data were in the form of words, phrases, and utterances employed by
the teacher. The researcher played the role as the primary instrument in which she
was involved in all of the process of this research starting from the research
design until the data report. The data were obtained through conducting
observations accompanied by audio recording. The data were, then, transcribed
into the written form, selected to fit the objectives of the study, recorded into the
data sheets, interpreted and analysed using the theory of speech acts proposed by
Searle. The data were analysed by using interactive qualitative method proposed
by Miles and Huberman (1994). In addition, coding system was also applied to
ease the researcher in classifying the data. the researcher used theoretical
triangulation. The researcher compared the data of this research to the related
theory. The researcher checked the data of speaker utterances based on the
directive speech acts theory of Searle.
The research findings show that there were four kinds of speech acts
performed by the teacher, namely, directives, representatives, expressive and
commissives. The most frequently used speech acts were directives (63.004%),
while the least frequent speech acts went to declarative (0.00%). It is because
declarative perfome if the speaker has to have a special institutional role.
Directives was mostly domiant used by English teacher in teaching learning
process. Asking appeared to be the most dominant speech act. The use of
directives was understandable since in restricted discourse like classroom setting,
the relation between the teacher and the students was asymmetrical in nature. The
teacher‟s use of asking allowed the students to participate more actively in the
lesson. By giving the question, the teacher can know whether the students
understand or not about the lessons learned. Meanwhile, asking was employed to
check the students‟ background knowledge.
