Abstract

EFL learners had difficulties in mastering speaking since it is complex and difficult. The students frequently produced erroneous utterances such as grammatical errors. Some researchers conducted studies dealing with that issue which showed the use of oral corrective feedback in speaking activities. Unfortunately there are some debates on whether oral corrective feedback should be given to correct the students erroneous utterances. Regarding this matter this study is intended to investigate the attitude of ELT students towards oral corrective feedback on students erroneous utterances in speaking classes. This study was conducted in the Department of English Universitas Negeri Malang. The participants of this study were students from 2016 2017 and 2018 cohord who have taken all speaking courses including Basic Speaking Speaking for Informal and Speaking for Formal/Academic Purposes. This study was conducted by using a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey research design. The instruments used in this study were a questionnaire and interview guideline. The findings of this study showed that ELT students have positive attitudes towards oral corrective feedback. Almost all of the students were willing and need to receive OCF to improve the accuracy of the target language. Besides more than half of the students did not feel frustrated and embarrassed when they received OCF. Unsuccessfully they felt nervous to speak after receiving OCF but it did not inhibit their acceptance to speak. The students believed that OCF is best given to a high level of speaking proficiency. Almost all of the students agreed that OCF can increase their grammar knowledge. Regarding the students preferences almost all of the students wanted to be corrected when they produce serious erroneous utterances that impede listeners rsquo understanding. Correcting the students rsquo erroneous utterances should wait until they stop speaking. Many of them did not want to be interrupted while speaking. Almost all of the students preferred lecturers to correct their erroneous utterances since lecturers have more knowledge and experience than their classmates. The OCF type that the students mostly preferred was explicit correction with metalinguistic explanation since it eases them to obtain the correction and the explanation. All in all the students showed positive attitudes towards oral corrective feedback in speaking classes.
