      English Engineering lesson with Mr Aji had entered the tenth week. At this meeting, the students presented the task of interviewing tourists which the topic is the tourist’s opinion about Malam Satu Suro movie translation. The presentation started from the most front row but with order as follow: the group which had to present first is the group with all male members, and then the group with male and female members, the last is the group with all female members.
      In every presentation of each group, Mr Aji always gave a review for group’s presentation. When Ilham and Iqbal doing a presentation, Mr Aji also gave review to their presentation. Ilham and Iqbal said that the tourist understand the story of Malam Satu Suro after they told the story orally. And then Mr Aji said to the students that they have to be confident when they speak English in front of the foreigner because actually Indonesian people is good at conversation.
      At the end of the class, Mr Aji asked the students to write a resume based on all group presentations about common mistakes of their translation. Ilham and Iqbal discussed about it and below is the result of their discussion:

1. Vocabbulary: many students did some wrongs in vocabbulary selection and this is make some tourists confused about the meaning of the story
2. Grammar: this is the hard part in English lesson, so there are also many students who did some wrongs in grammar, include Ilham and Iqbal’s group.
3. Repeated word or unnecessary word: some students wrote the same words repeatedly, and it made the sentence is less efficient and also confusing.
