Abstract

In order to achieve the goal of English Language Teaching (ELT), EFL learners are required to develop five communicative competence. One of the language competencies which plays an important role in supporting learners’ proficiency is strategic competence. The objective of the study was to display the profile of strategic competence that has been acquired by English Department students of UNNES in the academic year of 2018/2019 in their transactional conversation. The study used descriptive qualitative research design. The type of data used in this study was observational data and more specifically recorded conversation. The subject of the study was EFL leaners of class A in English Department Unnes in the academic year of 2018/2019. The research instrument used was worksheet. I used Celce-Murcia (1995) framework as the model to design the worksheet. The findings of this study showed that students possessed all of the five strategic competence, but they majorly possessed on some components such as stalling (53%) and achievement (22%). During the conversation, students only applied fifteen percent (15%) of interactional strategies and five percent (5%) of avoidance and self-monitoring strategies. The results showed that the profile of strategic competence employed by the students was not fairly possessed. Students were not able to apply strategic competence effectively. Based on the finding, I found that English Departement students still lack on some points and it may have some influences on their speaking skill since learners who can make effective use of strategies tend to learn languages better and faster than those who are strategically inept.
