We emphasized that there were many factors (both internal and external) that should be taken into consideration while we were engaged in the teaching process. Under “the internal factors” we mean factors which are inside the classroom. They are: Effective instructions. In this way we mean teaching practice due to the attention to individuals of pupils leading well-planned instructions, which tend to enhance a great order and effective process of studying. Setting and implementing rules. In this case the goal is to achieve maximum result of learning within minimum of time. Feedback according to appropriate behavior. It is a good point to remember that praise of behavior would be more effective if it was linked with well-planned and well-done performance. Emphasizing on classroom environment. Well-managed classrooms will increase pupils’ desire to study in such supportive learning environment. The best teacher’s Approach. The best way to teach pupils is to develop their activity that lets them to create the rules, instead of telling the schoolchildren what the rules are. Disabilities. If one pupil has a disability to study this subject, the teacher may need to spend more one-on-one time with this pupil or allow the development of technician to provide the activities with him/her.             It was shown that external factors were these ones that were outside the classroom. In this way they affect classroom management, such as: planning, developing teacher’s personality, organizing parent-teacher meetings and emphasizing on psychological factors.

This study aims to discuss the use of Total Communication (TC, henceforth), the combinations of communication modes, and the reasons for using TC for hearing-impaired (HI) students of English class at SLB PGRI Kamal. Teaching English to them is believed to require more strategic approaches especially when compared to students who do not have any hearing issues. The data are from four HI students at SLB PGRI Kamal and their English teacher. In collecting the data, observation, note taking and recording were used as the instruments in which during taking note and observation, the researchers used phone recorder and phone camera to anticipate the data from lost and for further analysis. The results show that there are seven communication modes that were used. Those are lip-reading, sign language, images, writing, Indonesian Alphabetic Symbol System (IAS), finger spelling, and speech. Those modes are combined depending on the needs of the users (both English teacher and HI students). Therefore, the researcher found six combinations of modes in TC. Moreover, the researchers found five reasons for using TC for HI students in the English classroom at SLB PGRI Kamal. It is because of its flexibility and effectiveness in communication. Futhermore, TC gives chances to HI students to learn to speak, write and read in English, and allow the HI students to make English sounds and identify them
