Adanya peningkatan minat wisatawan baik lokal maupun mancanegara terhadap desa wisata perlu dibarengi dengan adanya peningkatan sumber daya manusia dalam hal berkomunikasi, khususnya komunikasi dalam Bahasa Inggris sebagai Bahasa yang paling banyak digunakan sebagai penghubung antara wisatawan dengan para pelaku wisata. Masyarakat sebagai tuan rumah di desa wisata harus diperlengkapi dengan keampuan berbahasa Inggris yang baik.  Tujuan dari kegiatan Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat (PKM) ini adalah memberikan pelatihan untuk membantu kelompok sadar wisata (Pokdarwis) Desa Sukajadi di Kecamatan Tamansari Bogor dalam meningkatkan kemampuan komunikasi Bahasa Inggris khusus untuk wisata.  Berdasarkan wawancara yang dilakukan sebelum program ini dimulai, masyarakat Desa Sukajadi secara keseluruhan masih belum memiliki kemampuan yang baik dalam menggunakan Bahasa Inggris untuk kepentingan wisata. Untuk memecahkan masalah tersebut salah satu solusi tercepat adalah melalui metode pelatihan atau kursus menggunakan Bahasa Inggris praktis, yakni dengan berlatih / praktek langsung keterampilan menggunakan bahasa Inggris dalam berinteraksi dengan tamu, menjelaskan potensi wisata alam atau pertanian, menjelaskan akomodasi, dan fasilitas pelengkap pariwisata. Secara umum berdasarkan analis hasil kuesioner yang diberikan kepada peserta pelatihan, tidak ada kendala maupun kesulitan yang dihadapi dalam mengikuti pelatihan ini, pokdarwis dan kepala desa merasa sangat terbantu dengan adanya pelatihan ini dan sebagian besar peserta dapat memahami semua materi yang telah diberikan dengan baik. Peserta juga menyadari akan pentingnya memperdalam kemampuan berbahasa Inggris terutama keterampilan berbicara (<em>speaking skill</em>).

Guiding is a branch of oral communication. In oral communication, guiding can be included as productive skill. English guiding is one of the academic lessons in the fourth semester.

In other cases a tour guide may be responsible for teaching tourists about the culture and sites in a city or town. Improving students’ communicative skill is the goal of teaching English guiding, because the student can express themselves and know how to use language well. In the real situation in teaching guide process, lecturer cannot escape from reality. It occurs because there are some problems faced by the lecture and the student.

Learning Language

Bearing in mind that the learners’ speaking skill had become the main goal in learning language, grammatical competence is believed to have a big role within foreign language learners’ language production, especially in spoken form. Moreover, the learners’ grammatical competence is also closely related to the Monitor Hypothesis proposed by Krashen (1982) in which it says that the acquired system will function as monitor or editor to the language production. The students’ monitor performance will vary based on how they make use of their acquired system. They may use it optimally (monitor optimal user), overly (monitor over-user), or they may not use it at all (monitor under-user). Therefore, learners’ grammatical competence has its own role, which is very crucial, within learners’ language production, which is not only to produce the language, but also to monitor the language production itself. Because of this reason, focus on form instruction will give a great impact for students’ grammatical competence within their communicative competence. This paper aims to present ideas about the how crucial the role grammatical competence within learners’ L2 communication.

The cause of students’ low ability is the unappropriateness of teachers’ strategy in teaching speaking. There are about 96% students at class “A” agreed and 86.4% students at class “B” had similar answer. Another cause is students’ low motivation in learning. Class “A” students agreed for about 76% of them and 77% of class “B” students answered the same.
