\n[Intan.satriani@yahoo.co.id](Intan.satriani@yahoo.co.id)  \nSTKIP Siliwangi Bandung  \nAbstract  \nEnglish for Tour Guide is one of the courses in English Language Education Program of STKIP Siliwangi Bandung. This course uses “English for Professional Tour Guiding Services” as a textbook. Various problems are found when the teachers use this book in the classroom. It predominantly deals with the materials. In response to this problem, this study aims to evaluate the use of“English for Professional Tour Guiding Services” book for students in English Language Education Program of STKIP Siliwangi Bandung. This research will apply quantitative and qualitative research design. There are two instruments in obtaining the data, namely questionnaire and interview. Through this study, it is expected that the strengthsand weaknesses of this book can be found. Thus, the suitable materials for the students can be designed. For a long term, it is expected that the result of this study can be used as a reference to make a book of English for Tour Guide course.  \nKeywords: textbook evaluation, English for tour guide  \nIntroduction  \nEnglish for Tour Guide is one of courses in English Language Education Program at STKIP Siliwangi Bandung. This course is designed to help the students to communicate using English, whether it is verbally or non-verbally, in the context of tourism industry, especially tour guiding service. Varioustopics are discussed in this course. The main topic focuses on tour guide conversation, such as welcoming the tourist, giving information, etc. Another topic is related to the skill needed to be professional tour guide, how to make itinerary, tour package, and brochure; and how to make a report of tour activity.  \nAs a reference, this course uses “English for Professional Tour Guiding Services” textbook written by Sutanto Leo. In general, the use of this book is really helpful for the teachers as it provides guides for the students to practice communication within tour guiding service. Unfortunately, in the application, various problems are found. The first problem deals with the overlap material, while the second one is related to material given in unsystematic way. Most of the material given on this book also only focuses on improving three language skills: speaking, reading, and writing. None of the material attempted to develop students’ listening skill, as the use of audio or CD. As a matter of fact, this is receptive skill that should be learnt by English language students.  \nRegarding the above weaknesses, the evaluation of English for Tour Guide textbook is definitely needed. Evaluation, according to Lynch (cited in Tabaeifard, 2014), is the systematic attempt to gather information in order to make judgment or decision. Hutchinson  \nand Water (in Fraidan, 2012) refers to evaluation as matching process, matching needs to available solution. Dealing with textbook evaluation, Harmer (2001) specifically points out that it is a judgment on how well a book has performed in fact. In short, textbook evaluation is systematic attempt to gather the information on how well a book has performed in teaching and learning process, whether or not it is suitable with need of students.  \nThe above reason finally spurs the writers to conduct the study of the evaluation of English for Tour Guide textbook used by sixth semester students in English language education program of STKIP Siliwangi.  \nEnglish for Tour Guide is one of courses in English Language Education Program at STKIP Siliwangi Bandung. This course is given to the sixth semester students. The aim is to help them to communicate using English, whether it is verbally or non-verbally, in the context of tourism industry, especially tour guiding service.  \nVarious topics are discussed i","cbCaipwEz517dtL3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipwEz517dtL3","pdf",340166,11,"English","# Abstract\n## Introduction\n## Textbook evaluation rationale\n## Course and learner context\n## Needs analysis background","[{\"question\":\"What course and textbook are evaluated in the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study evaluates the “English for Professional Tour Guiding Services” textbook used in the English for Tour Guide course at STKIP Siliwangi Bandung.\"},{\"question\":\"What problems occur when teachers use the textbook?\",\"answer\":\"Problems include overlapping materials, unsystematic delivery, and an imbalanced focus on speaking, reading, and writing, with minimal development of listening skills.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the study collect and analyze data?\",\"answer\":\"Data are collected using questionnaires and interviews, applying a quantitative and qualitative research design to evaluate the textbook’s strengths and weaknesses.\"}]","Designing an English Learning Module for English for Tour Guide Course - Textbook Evaluation Study | PDF",1792066761,28]
