Abstract

The role of youth in Karang Taruna is significant to help the community become citizens who care about the problems and needs of the community. In addition, Karang Taruna youth can also train and develop leadership skills, a caring spirit, sensitivity, and a sense of responsibility as a community or social being. Cadets’ caretakers must have communication, leadership, and language skills. The purpose of this research is to find out the perceptions about the importance of having the ability to speak English. The benefit of this research is to provide solutions for youth to have the ability to speak English based on their needs. In this study, researchers used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods. In collecting data, they completed observations at Youth Organizations in the Karawang district related to English language mastery. In addition, researchers conducted interviews with Karang Taruna administrators to ask their opinion on mastery of English in the Globalization Era and also what English skills are needed for youth organizations to carry out their duties in youth organizations in Karawang Regency. The findings of this study from internal and external factors show that the youth committee members believe that English is essential to be mastered in obtaining information widely and communicating with people around the world. They need to learn English to prepare for Job Interviews in the company. The impact produced in this study is that the youth committee members are enthusiastic about learning English by using audio-visual media and relevant applications.
