English Teaching Learning Process
According to the interwiew with Head Master and English teachers, English teaching learning process in SMP Plus AL-Aqsha contains of two main activities, they are a learning process which follows the Ministry of Education which is held in a classroom, and a learning process which follows KMMI (Kulliyyat al-0X ¶DOOLPLQ ZD DO-0X ¶DOOLPDW DO-Islamiyat) which is held out of classroom.
Based on the observation that the writer conducted in class 7 B SMP Plus Al-Aqsha on 3 October 2013 the process of teaching learning in SMP Plus Al-Aqsha is the same with other junior high schools, either in the lesson plans or the syllables. The process of teaching learning which covers the four skills of English³listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
When an English teacher enter a classroom, the students are asked to stand up and give a greeting, then they have to pray together. After that, directly the teacher opens the teaching process in the way of repeating the last material that was taught in the last week, namely apperception. Before a new material is taught, previously the teacher gives some points or asks some questions related to the main material that will be taught in that meeting. In this stage of learning process, the teacher make the students to be active during the learning process by giving an image related to the material, then ask the students to guess what material will be taught by looking that image.
In giving the material, the teachers use Kurikulum Berorientasi Pengembangan Nilai Karakter Bangsa (KBPNKB), where in this activity; the students are able to have a critical and rational thinking. In this activity, the writer divides the study into four skills of English; a) listening; b) speaking; c) reading, and d) writing. In teaching listening skill, teacher uses a tape recorder to convey the material and by using speech method. An English teacher said that he tries making the students familiar with to listen a material. For the evaluation, the teacher repeats the material and followed continuously by students until they can comprehend what the teacher says. Besides the students study how to give a UHVSRQVH IRU WHDFKHU ¶V VWDWHPHQW WKH\ DUH DOVR DVNHG WR SURQRXQFH VRPH (QJOLVK word or sentence that the teacher says. The teacher also asks the students to have courage to speech in front of classroom in order to make them be familiar with speech activity in front of others. In the way of making them be familiar with speaking, the teacher gives a speech or conversation script to the students.
In teaching reading process, the teacher asks students to read a text which is related to material they taught. The way that is used to convey this skill, the teacher asks them to read the text one by one, then the teacher give a correction for their pronunciation and give a correct one for their wrong pronunciation. In teaching writing skill the teacher asks students to arrange some sentences, check off some word, and also make a composition related to the material. In this activity, the teacher tends to be active because there are some students still have some problems with the way to write composition.
Before the teacher closes the learning process, the teacher repeats and give a conclusion about the taught-material and give some assignment as the matter for evaluation. A teacher adds that in order to gain the speaking assessment, the teacher always grade the students by seeing a quantity of vocabulary that they master when they speech in front of classroom.

English Learning Process in KMMI 1. Daily Activity
Vocabulary is one of the elements of the language that must be mastered by students in SMP Plus Al-Aqsa to get and easier communicate, because language is a set of basic a vocabulary. Basically, not all boarding schools are learning vocabulary, for it is essentially vocabulary learning in boarding school to implement the system of two languages, one of which there are in Islamic boarding school Al-Aqsha, where is implementing of education system in boarding school has two languages, namely: English Arabic and English, who practiced in everyday life. With the vocabulary learning can be add and multiply the vocabulary needed by students to speak in Arabic and English in their daily. There are many excess of in vocabulary learning system in pesantren Al-Aqsha includes; 1) Increase a vocabulary; 2) Make it easier for the students to translate a sentence; 3) Streamlining the students in speaking in a language (Arabic and English) which is done in the cottage to be applied in everyday life; 4) Those students can recite the vocabulary used in daily life properly.
Vocabulary is an important factor in all language teaching and of critical importance to the typical language learner. It is considerably large and also varies in number. No one can master all of the words of any language, but they can enrich the stock of words. The larger the vocabulary of the students, the more chance they have the ability of reading and writing. Therefore, it is the task of the English teacher to help their students improve their vocabulary along with grammar and pronunciation. Besides the daily learning process in classroom, the English learning process is also held on daily morning as long as 15 minutes. In this morning, each student has to memorize at least 15 words in English. They have to remember by saying those words, because they will get punishment if WKH\ GRQ ¶W GR WKDW ,I WKH\ KDYH PDVWHUHG WKRVH ZRUGV WKH\ ZLOO EH JLYHQ WKH other 5 words, and so on. This activity is called Morning Vocabulary.

Weekly Activity a. Conversation
This conversation is held every Wednesday. This activity is called Morning Conversation. In this activity, each student is asked to make a conversation and practice it with their friends. This activity is under the guidance of Central Language Improvement (CLI). Every week CLI provide the certain theme. The Students should make a conversation based on the theme provided. In the process, Students make a long line in front of their dormitory. They stand face to face with their own partner. The language section of each dormitory look around and supervise this activity in order to make sure that students make a conversation with their friends. With the system of conversation there is a lot of benefits that can be taken, namely to simplify and facilitate the students for using speaking language (Arabic and English) and also accustom themselves to speak the language fluently, as well as the courage of the students trained in talking with other people.
b. Speech Practice Speech practice is held every Saturday night. Students are designed in groups with the variety of Class or grade. Every Group has their own place and contain of 25-30 students. Each Group should make their own structure (Chief, Secretary, and so on). All students are asked to make a speech script and to practice a speech in front of others. They make a presentation of their script by turns. Speech practice run at the school consists of three languages, namely Arabic, English, and Indonesian. The main goal of the speech practice is to print the students a mentally strong, able to speak in a dignified manner, and able to express ideas and ideas to the audience, as well as adding the ability to speak both in quantity and quality vocabulary.
The aim of daily and weekly activity is to practice and make students usual to communicate in English with another. These activities exist under the language Institution in Yayasan Al-Aqsha. For the curriculum of KMMI, there are also the syllabus and lesson plans. They are almost the same as the syllabus and lesson plans of KTSP curriculum. By the existing of this curriculum, it becomes one of supporting factors of English learning process of KTSP curriculum.
Here is the part of interview held by the writer: The writer: is it effective if the learning process uses two curriculums? The KMMI curriculum staff: Insya Allah it is effective, KMMI is the supporting of Indonesian Ministry of Education curriculum. Thus, the combination of those curriculums is like mutualism relationship in the meaning that it supports each other.
