Abstract

English is considered a foreign language in Indonesia and must be learned by everyone, especially students. The government has determined that English will become a compulsory subject in Indonesian schools and will be one of the topics assessed in the National Assessment of educational progress. Therefore, the purpose of teaching English in schools is to strengthen students' communication skills in preparation for the era of globalization. However, teachers in rural and urban schools face unique challenges, involving students, teachers, and facilities. Then, inadequate teacher quality is a clear concern in rural schools. The purpose of this study was to find out about the challenges experienced by teachers, especially English teachers when carrying out teaching and learning activities in rural schools and then to find the factors faced by teacher in teaching English. This descriptive case study was framed by observation, in-depth interviews, and open-ended interviews from four teachers and four students were used as data collection methods. The result of this study is that English teachers in Indonesia, especially in rural areas, consider that teaching English is a difficult endeavor because English is a foreign language. Furthermore, this research contributes to assisting teachers in developing their professionalism in teaching English in rural areas.
