Referring to the description above, the researchers intend to conduct a study entitled.

METHOD
This research used the design of descriptive-qualitative, according to Ary and Donald (2002), descriptive research is studies which are designed to obtain information concerning with the current phenomena.
Data collection techniques are a systematic method or process of learning, recording and presenting facts for a specific purpose, this study uses only one type of data techniques:

Observation
Observation is the one of the most important source in qualitative research to get deep insight about how people experience, feel and interpret the social world (Creswell, 2012). In this study the researcher chose passive participation, meaning that the researchers would be present at the scene but not interact or participate. The researchers obtained the data by observing the teaching methods applied by the teacher in the classroom. In collected observational data, the data collection instruments used by researchers were used field notes and taking pictures to obtain any events that occurred in the field. Observations are made during the learning process by observed a teacher who provides learning materials and methods used by a teachers.

Interview
Esterberg in Sugiyono (2014)  teachers. So, the researchers interviewed the English teachers to get information about the teaching methods applied in the classroom.
After collected that data from the observation, and interviews, the researchers was analyzed it with qualitative data analysis. Based on Miles and Huberman (1994) which is involving three steps in analyzed the qualitative data, they were: Data reduction, data display, and conclusion/verification. (1) The first step of data analysis is data reduction. Data reduction means summarizing, choose the basic things, focusing on important things, look for themes and patterns (Sugiyono 2014). In conducted research, researchers get a lot of data. Therefore, researchers must select the data to be provided and valuable information in research. Therefore, the researchers first has to make a report to analyze the data. Based on the concept of data reduction, reduced the incoming data of this researchers was selected by identifying what method used by teachers in the classroom and how to the teachers applied the teaching method.
(2) The second step is data display. A display is an organized, compressed assembly of information that permits conclusion drawing and the action (Miles and Huberman, 1994). It is the process to displaying data in the form of table and is easy to understand. Display data in the form of a sentence and narrative. In displaying the data, the researchers describe the data that has been reduced to a sentence. (3) The last process is conclusion and verification, in research, the researchers make conclusions from the data display, in short, the steps in analyzing the data are: (1) the researcher collects the data through a interview, then the researcher selects, identifies and focuses on the data by referring to the formulation of the research problem.
(2) after the data is select, the researchers display the data into a good sentence.
(3) after presenting the data, conclusions are drawn.

FINDINGS

The teacher gives repetitions to each utterance three times and asks the students to repeat it three times. With the principle that language learning is a process of habit formation.
