Abstract:
This study "Promotion of Authentic Material in Teaching English Language through Story Telling Technique – University level" is carried out to improve the standard of English language, because it is very obvious that English language at schools is declining and this follows, of course, with students who enter the universities. This is why the researcher held the experiment with her own students in the university. One of the researcher's assumptions of the decline in the language is the lack of motivation for both teachers and learners and implementing Story Telling Technique in teaching English Language will solve the problem.
