Abstract

The case study aims at (1) obtaining empirical data on the types of communication strategies used by Indonesian EFL beginning learners, (2) figuring out the most and least frequently used communication strategies, and (3) identifying factors contributing to the use of communication strategies in respect to the second aim. Thirty two students participated in the initial part of this study, eight students of whom were selected to elicit responses related to their use of communication strategies. Then, descriptive qualitative research was employed to analyze the data excerpts and inferential statistical analysis to report on the frequency of communication strategies, to calculate each strategy in terms of percentage and presented in a tabular form. The results of data analysis revealed that the students employed 305 data excerpts registered into 13 types of communication strategies. One interesting finding was that almost a half of the whole data excerpts were dominated by the stalling strategies, namely "pause fillers" and "self-repetition" which ranked the first and the second respectively. In contrast, "foregnizing" was the least frequently used CSs. Their L2 insufficiency and practice inadequateness among the learners conceivably became factors contributing to the use of the former CS and their relatively high awareness on the L1 and L2 featured with a wide range of differences resulted in the infrequent use of the latter.
