also advantages of introducing a foreign language for young learners. The government of Indonesia has therefore set up the policy to introduce English language in primary schools. This policy is optional. It depends on school and community demands. The government does not provide teachers and curriculum. Schools and community are in charge to provide teachers, curriculum and facilities. Teachers are one of the most important parts in the discourse of education and the process of teaching and learning in schools. It was this that interested to research their perceptions of English language teaching for primary students.

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Back ground Teaching English in Indonesia has already begun at the time after the Independence of Indonesia. A variety of curricula and methods have been developed to enhance students' ability in mastering the English language. However the results still have not felt up in making the student can communicate well through language. Various problems and background factors why the results achieved have not been as expected. One way the government in improving students' skills in English language is introduced early English, beginning from elementary school. The program is implemented based on the 1994 curriculum for elementary schools. Officially, the policy on inserting English lessons in primary schools in accordance with Decree No. MOEC policy. 0487/1992, Chapter VIII, which states that primary schools can add to the subjects in the curriculum, provided that the lesson was not contrary to the national education goals. Later, this policy was followed by a decree of the Minister of Education and Culture No.. 060/U/1993 dated February 25, 1993 about the possibility of the English program as a local content subject SD, and can be started in 4th grade (Http: www.depdiknas.go.id / selayangpandangpenyelenggaraanpendidikannasional.) Schools have the authority on the subjects included English as one of the local content is taught in primary schools based on consideration of circumstances and needs of both parents and society itself. This policy brings a positive impact both for the people and schools who organize the program. Over the past few years, a trend that increased school implement the teaching of English from primary school. Four Basics from Classic are: reading, listening, writing, and speaking. From it basics We must teaching to the student step by step, We Can not teach with a direct,
