Abstract

This study aims to determine the role of communicative English in improving the services of the police. The research was carried out at South Denpasar Sector Police Station located in the Sanur tourism area. Therefore, its assignment area automatically covers Sanur as one of the main tourism destinations for domestic and foreign tourists. The problem faced by the police officers as PKM partners is their limited ability to effectively communicate in English, such as asking questions, providing explanations to foreigners. The research showed that these problems are overcome by providing communicative English training lectures, using the pair work, and conversation methods. The training has an impact on vocabulary mastery, communication skills, and grammar mastery of the training participants.
