Abstract

In Indonesia, teaching English through literature (literary text) in primary school has challenges because it does not have a curriculum. Especially English subject is only local content that does not have to include in primary school. A school that never implemented English in their learning must be difficult to provide teaching. So, this study aims to research the challenges in teaching English literature in primary school from a teacher’s perspective and the strategies used to solve the challenges. The method used in this research is qualitative descriptive and the subject is an English teacher of 6th grade in MI Nadlatul Ulama Malang.
