Every country is giving a prime importance to the quality of teachers and national policies have been influenced by the growing realization that teachers have a key role to play in determining the quality of output of educational institutions. Even the modern technology has its own important roles in supporting the educational system; teacher is still the vital element in the teaching and learning process. Teacher is a person who teaches, especially in a school. It is universally recognized that the teacher is the key person in an education system. She/he enjoys the high esteem and prestigious status sometimes denied to kings and emperors and he/she plays pivotal role. Around him, whole system of education revolves. Nowadays, teacher is so much needed in order to develop education’s quality. According to Harmer (1990), there are metaphors to describe what teachers do; sometimes they are like actors because they are always on the stages. Others think they are like orchestral conductors because they direct conversation and set the pace and tone. In other words, teacher is a person who is trusted to educate the young generation to be a well-educated person. Being a teacher is not as easy as what people think. Teacher should know how to teach and manage their students in the classroom. In addition, teacher has a significant role in teaching the students. Furthermore, Richards & Rodgers (2014) state that ‘Role’ refers to the part that learners and teachers are expected to play in carrying out learning tasks as well as the social and interpersonal relationships between the participants. In attempting to determine a problem language, the teacher has some roles. A good teacher should have a capacity to perform his roles depend on different circumstances effectively. According to Harmer (1990), a teacher has six roles in managing a class, they are controller, assessor, organizer, prompter, participant, and resource. Additionally, Sanjaya (2007) also states that teacher has six roles in managing a class during teaching and learning process, they are teacher as a learning source, facilitator, manager, demonstrator, guide, and motivator. However, whole elements that the researchers try to figure out are all about classroom management which the management itself refers to skill in the organization and presentation of lessons in such a way that all pupils are actively engaged in learning. This requires an ability to analyze the different elements and phases of a lesson, to select and deliver appropriate material and to reduce sources of friction. Moreover, a good management in a Script Journal: Journal of Linguistic and English Teaching, April 2017, Vol. 2 No. 1 Copyright © 2017, Script Journal: Journal of Linguistic and English Teaching, p-ISSN 2477-1880, e-ISSN 2502-6623 85 classroom can help students to reduce their levels of stress. Teachers can also build up their students’ and their own self-management and learning skills in the classroom. Smith and Lastleth (2002) point out four rules in classroom management. The first is “get them in” which means the way teachers start a meeting or a class. This rule consists of greeting, Seating and starting. The second rule is “get them out” which means the way how teachers end a meeting or a class. This rule consists of concluding and dismissing. The third rule is “get on with it” which means the main part of the lesson the nature of its content and the manner of its presentation and the fourth rule is “get on with them” which means teachers develop good personal relationship with their students. To create a succeed education, a good classroom management will be so much needed, because by applying this, a teacher can control, organize, assess and prompt a class well. Based on the fact that the role of a teacher in managing classroom is needed by the entire teacher, the researchers would like to find out the teacher’s roles in managing the class during the English teaching and learning process in SMP Advent Samarinda. METHODOLOGY The design of this research is descriptive design with qualitative approach. Referring to Quenn (1990), the qualitative approach has some characteristics, those are: (1) qualitative research has the natural setting as the direct source of data and the researcher is the key instrument; (2) qualitative research is descriptive; (3) qualitative researchers are concerned with the process rather than simply with outcomes or products; (4) qualitative researchers tend to analyze their data inductively; and (5) “Meaning” is of essential concern to the qualitative approach. Additionally, Suryabrata (2003) says, literally, descriptive study is a research to make a description about situation or events. In this sense, descriptive study is an accumulation of basic data merely in a descriptive way. It is not necessary to test its hypothesis, to make prediction or to get meaning and implication. Regarding with research instruments that the researchers use, firstly, the researchers are the key instruments. In this case, the researchers have some functions, such as; determine the focus of the research, select some information as the source of the data, assesses the data quality, analyze the data, and conclude of the findings (Sugiono, 2009). Secondly, the researchers used questionnaires which were given to the students to get students’ ideas about the roles of the teacher in managing the class during the teaching and learning process. There were two kinds of questionnaire which were be used, they were free answer and multiple choice. In this case, questionnaire is a set of questions deal with a single topic which is Script Journal: Journal of Linguistic and English Teaching, April 2017, Vol. 2 No. 1 Copyright © 2017, Script Journal: Journal of Linguistic and English Teaching, p-ISSN 2477-1880, e-ISSN 2502-6623 86 related one another. This is used for investigating a problem which influences people. The questionnaire should be answered by the subject distributing to the subject in order to get any answers, responses, or ideas which is needed (Kartono, 2009). Furthermore, the third research instrument that was used by the researchers was observation sheet to collect the data of the teacher’s roles in managing the class during the teaching and learning process. The main aspect that the researchers focused on was the teacher’s roles in managing the class which are applied during the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, the statements in observations sheet are the combination of the theory of Harmer and Sanjaya. In addition, the researchers also used field note to write activities which happened in the class during the researchers do the observation, such as the situation of the class and the activities during the teaching and learning process. Lastly, the researchers also had an interview. In this case, the researchers directly had some questions with the teacher who was the subject of this study. Moreover, to collect the data, the researchers act as passive observers where they did not participate to any single activity during the lesson. Related to how the researchers analyze the data, the researchers used a flow model of data management and analysis methods which proposed by (Miles & Huberman, 1994). Specifically, the data analysis contains three linked sub processes: data reduction, data display, and data conclusion drawing/verification. FINDINGS a.
