Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out how close the relationship between the social class of adolescent parents and the ability to speak English. This study uses a quantitative method with a correlation approach. This research was conducted by Pipin Suryani in Hamlet III, Harapan Pondok Kelapa Village, Central Bengkulu. The population of this study were all adolescents aged 15-18 years in Hamlet III Desa Harapan, totaling 130 youths. The sample of this study were 15 teenagers who were randomly selected. The teenagers were given a questionnaire consisting of 10 question items to find out their parents' social class level. Then, a test was conducted to determine the ability to speak English. In this test, teenagers are asked to describe the beauty of the beach in the area where they live. The results of the Pearson Product Moment Correlation show that there is a close relationship between parents' social class and English language skills in adolescents in Hamlet III, Harapan Village, Pondok Kelapa, Bengkulu Tengah. This can be seen from the rcount between variable X (Parents' Social Class) and Y variable (Speaking Ability) which is greater than the rtable value, namely rcount>r table of 0.809 > 0.514. In other words, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted while the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected. In short, the ability to speak English is strongly influenced by the social class conditions of parents. When parents with a high level of social class will be able to meet all the needs needed by teenagers in the process of seeking knowledge. This is inversely proportional if the condition of the parents' social class is low.
