Abstract

The program involved head master, English school teacher and 90 learners of Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs) Mambaul Ulum at central Bengkulu district. The usage of second hand materials is a great effort to achieve several goals among others; first, bringing the authentic materials into classroom teaching so the learners get closer to the materials given as they are found sorrounding their life.
