Because students are young generation who have to know the knowledge to increase their ability. From all things above, actually that tips can be used for the students. English subject is important for students. The traditional conversation lesson is of no value at all if the student is not ready for it. It is impossible for any students at the post-elementary level to take part in discussions on topics like The Cinema Today, for his ideas quiet outstrip his capacity for expressing them. The student must first be trained to use patterns in carefully graded oral drills. Only in this way will he finally learn to speak. Before considering how this can be done, it should be noted that the patterns in a language fall into two distinct categories: progressive and static. For instance, learning how to answer and to ask questions involves the use of progressive patterns. They are progressive because the students skill in handling these complex forms must be developed over along period, beginning with the simple response like Yes, it is and culminating in complex responses like Yes, I should, shouldnt I. A static pattern, on the other hand, like the comparison of adjectives can be taught in a limited number of lessons, not over a long period.

Progressive patterns should be practiced through comprehension exercises which require the student to answer and to ask questions which become increasingly complex as the course proceeds. The student should be trained to give tag answers; make negative and affirmative statements to answer double questions joined by or; answer general questions which begin with question-words like When, Where, How, etc.; and at each stage, the students should be trained to ask questions himself. It is obvious that these skills cannot be dealt with in one or two lessons: the requires practice of this kind in every lesson. At the same time, static patterns should be practiced by means of drills which make use of language-laboratory techniques. In each of drills, the teacher seeks to elicit a particular kind of response. He provides the student with a stimulus to elicit the new pattern in a series of oral drills until the student is able to respond accurately and automatically. Students may also be trained to speak through oral composition exercises where they are required to reproduce orally a passage of English they are familiar with. At the outset, the student should practice reproducing narrative and descriptive pieces. At a much later stage, he will practice reproducing the substance of an argument. When he can do this well, he will be in apposition to converse on set topics which deal with abstract ideas. By this time he will be able to express himself with confidence and make relatively few mistakes. The techniques used in speech training at the pre-intermediate level may be summarized as follows:

Drilling in progressive patterns. Drilling in static patterns.

Practice in oral composition.
