Abstract

This study points out to analyze the learning problems faced by repatriation students in Lampung Province. Repatriation students are children of Indonesian Workers (TKI) who come from Malaysia. They have the same rights as other Indonesian children. In general, due to differences in learning places, they face many obstacles in the learning process. Therefore, further research is needed regarding the problems faced by repatriation students, especially in Lampung Province. A Qualitative descriptive approach was employed in this research. Related to data collection techniques, observation, interviews, literature study, and documentation were conducted. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. The validity of the data analysis technique performed source triangulation. This study shows that repatriated students experience several learning constraints including language, customs, culture, food, relationships, and ways of learning. Therefore, educators are expected to provide special treatment so that learning objectives can be achieved optimally.
