One of the focus is in the textbook seems to be crucial due to its prominent role as guidance to curriculum and teachers’ credence on the contents. A textbook actually has two important role as vehicle of knowledge transfer and of social practices paradigm construction. However, little studies have reported on the representation of female characters stereotypes in the context of elementary school language textbook. Following multimodality framework proposed by Van Leuween (2008), verbal and visual texts in two English language textbooks published by private companies in Indonesia were analysed in respect to gender stereotyped. The findings reveal the existence of stereotypes of female character on personality, hobby and interest, occupation, and social roles. The study suggests textbook makers (authors and publishers) and users (parents, teachers, and education stakeholders) to rise critical gender awareness.

The method applied in this research was qualitative approach with descriptive analysis. The data were collected from interview and observation with the owner of Kampung Inggris Pontianak, West Kalimantan. It was found that English speaking skill to elementary school students was separated into four levels; basic, intermediate 1, intermediate 2, and advanced. There are five methods applied by Kampung Inggris Pontianak to improve students English speaking skill. Flashcards, watching movies, listening, games, and singing. There were two kinds of obstacles that tutors face during the class. First, most of the tutors’ backgrounds were non-educational. So, they found it hard, sometimes, to control their elementary students who are very energetic. They might have English language competence. However, it is not adequate as their only competence to teach students compared to tutors with English educational background. Therefore, Kampung Inggris Pontianak holds micro-teaching practices to see tutor candidate performances before coming into class. Second, new students made many false answers on the placement test just to make them get into a lower level class than they are supposed to be. The researcher hopes this research will give knowledge to the reader of how tutors in Kampung Inggris Pontianak teaches speaking skills to their students.

The aim of this chapter is to highlight how the female body and the social practices that it is subject to are depicted in Émile Zola's literary work as indicators of dominating perceptions in 19th century patriarchal French society with regard to social roles in general and women's role in society in particular. Rather than focusing on an anatomic, biological analysis of the body, the discussion will turn to the body as a social construct, as metaphor for the overall treatment of women as beings whose appearance and behavior have to constantly be regulated for them to no longer constitute a threat to the male-centric society they live in.
