TESL M.Pd. Key words teaching English acceleration class. Developing language competence needs a long process. Therefore it is interesting to investigate how English teachers can develop the students language competence in acceleration class where students study time is shortened to 2 years. This study was intended to describe the teaching process of English in acceleration class at SMUN 3 Malang in terms of teaching materials and media and also teaching techniques. It was expected that the description of this study could be beneficial as a feedback for the teacher and school in developing the acceleration program. This study is a descriptive qualitative research. The subject was the English teachers of acceleration class of SMUN 3 Malang of 2007/2008 academic year. The main instrument in the study was the researcher who was supported by some instruments i.e. observations and interviews. From the findings it could be explained that the teacher used 3 different English books and others source materials such as English newspaper pictures posters and some materials from the internet as the teaching materials. The teacher used some kinds of media in his teaching such as audio media visual media and audio-visual media. He used language lab for teaching listening program. For the teaching techniques the teacher used some kinds of teaching techniques they are lecturing games simulation and discussion technique. Although he used some teaching techniques in teaching English process the most teaching technique used by the teacher was discussion technique. It could be concluded that the selected materials and media and teaching techniques used by the teacher in acceleration class have some strengths and weaknesses. The strengths were on the use of selected materials and the complete facilities of media. The weaknesses were on the teaching preparation the materials selected by the teacher. The materials cannot cover the development of all four language skills. The emphasis is only on the reading and writing skills. For teaching technique in the acceleration class the teacher uses not only discussion technique but also fixed group technique. The strength of those techniques is that the teacher used them to foster interaction between students whose skills attitudes and interest differ and allow them to use democratic leadership skills to lead the direction of their discussion and participation. The weakness is related to noise. Obviously students speak all at once trying to accomplish their task and this causes noise that may bother other colleagues. Based on the research findings some suggestions were given for the school or principal and acceleration program development team they have to make a specific qualification for the teachers who will teach the acceleration class or program. The qualifications of English teachers in acceleration class should be i different with the qualification of English teacher in regular class. They also have to conduct a better entrance selection system for acceleration class students. The criteria that must be passed are not only IQ test score interview and academic score but also creativity test score. In addition to that the school should be able to identify kinds of intelligence that the students they have to make a specific qualification for the teachers who will teach the acceleration class or program. The qualifications of English teachers in acceleration class should be different with the qualification of English teacher in regular class. For the betterment of teaching and learning process of English in acceleration class especially for the English teacher of acceleration class he should work harder to increase the quality of the teaching learning process of English by planning the teaching activities well in advance designing other source of teaching materials which can cover the development of four language skills being creative in providing the teaching and learning activities which are suitable with the students characteristics talents interest and preferences and he should be the facilitators and guides not to be the police officers whose stand behind the students back in order to correct everything they say or do. Further researchers are suggested conducting research about teaching and learning English in acceleration class with more specific focus such as students evaluation or assessment so that the students evaluation of English in acceleration can be described and analyzed more deeply.
