Abstract

How to communicate properly and correctly is needed by the people of Bali, especially those who live in tourism areas. The increasing arrivals of foreign tourists to the Island of the Gods has made English an important means of communication, which is therefore, badly needed by people in tourist areas, such as the Kintamani. Those who are directly involved in tourism industry activities are expected to provide good service to meet customer satisfaction. This qualitative research, which is based on a phenomenological philosophy approach, aims to determine the understanding of employees and homestay owners in Kintamani on the use of formal English greetings and terms to address customers in their daily tasks. 30 respondents were selected as samples by accidental sampling technique. Meanwhile, data were collected from respondents through interviews and observations, with recording techniques when respondents served guests in eight representative homestays. Furthermore, the data were descriptively analyzed, referring to the basic English grammatical theory. The results of the study show that in general, employees or homestay owners in Kintamani have already understood the formal use of greetings and terms to address the guests in English well. But in daily conversation, they do not use greetings and terms to address guests in formal English which is theoretically appropriate, and prioritize the communicative aspect instead.

Abstract

One form of tourism that has grown significantly around the world is educational tourism. The potential of Indonesian for Foreign Speakers (BIPA) as an educational tourism destination offering educational experiences is discussed in this study. The study's methodology is a qualitative one because the issues under investigation concern actors in the tourism and education industries' attitudes and perspectives on BIPA as one of Bali's main interests for international tourists. Data were collected by interviewing a number of key informants including the BIPA program director of the Balai Bahasa Bali, BIPA teachers, a faculty member who is also involved in an international program at Udayana University, a number of individuals involved in the tourism industry, including the current and previous president of the Indonesian Tour Guide Association, tourism observers, and academics. The study's findings indicate that BIPA has the potential to become one of Bali's top draws for visitors looking to learn the Balinese and Indonesian languages.

English-Chinese and g). Balinese script-English. 2). Regarding the attitudes towards LL, the users agreed the importance existence of LL at IGNRIA, in which bilingual Indonesian-English was used, instead of Indonesian or English written monolingually. In relation with the configurational composition, some users stated that Indonesian must be on top of English; while the others thought that either Indonesian or English can be on top, as long as it was clear and informative. Futhermore, users strongly supported the use of Balinese and Balinese Script in LL whuch may function as area identity symbol, as well as maintaining the local genius of Balinese culture. Users even stated that the use of Balinese can be a tourist attraction and knowledge which was good to learn. The use of a foreign language other than English was welcome as long as it was intended to fulfil the information needs of the airport users.

Data were collected by using questionnaire distributed to 180 international and domestic tourists who already visited the tourist attraction of Kertalangu Cultural Village.

The results showed that based on the characteristics of the respondents were mostly male, had a bachelor's education background, worked as employees, and use airplane transportation to go to Bali. The results of factor analysis identified physical factors in the recreation indicator with a loading factor value of 0.926 which is a variable that represents the push factor, which means that the factor is very strong in explaining the formed factors and the most dominant pull factor components. Factors influencing tourists were planting rice, picking vegetables, fishing, and catching ducks, in which the loading factor value was 0.932.

Abstract

Teaching French as foreign language (FLE) in tourism polytechnic is unique. The NHI Bandung Polytechnic of Tourism aims to train young professionals in the three sectors of tourism: hotels, travel management and tourism management. The aim of teaching French at school is to provide basic knowledge of French and to train students to be able to use French in a professional environment. French lessons at NHI Bandung Polytechnic of Tourism are taught in a classic way and focus on the grammatical aspect rather than on the communicative function. The problem of the lack of interactivity between the students and the teacher is considered as a hypothesis of the research. It is necessary to carry out an active pedagogy to invite the pupils to react during the lesson, to push them to participate. Based on this reflection, the author therefore decided to set up active pedagogy by using the communicative and action-oriented approach in the teaching of professional French for tourism
