Code-Switching and code-mixing are common phenomenon in our life
which is very likely to occur within the speech community or worldwide human
relation. Code-switching and code-mixing also have important position in
education especially in English teaching. This study investigated (1) what kinds of
code switching and codes mixing exist in reading V class; (2) what are the reasons
of the lecturer code switching and code mixing their languages.
The data was collected by recording the lecturers and students

questionnaires to the lecturer in order to find how she teaches English with two
languages in her class to complete the research of this study. The researcher did
the study toward Reading V Class of English Department of UMP in the academic

By analyzing data, it was found that code-switching and code-mixing in
Reading V class.(1)There are situational code switching, metaphorical codeswitching,
intrasential code-switching, intersential code-switching, and tagswitching.
And there are three kinds of code mixing, namely; insertion,
alternation, and congruent lexicalization.(2) the lecturer code switch and code-mix
their languages because the students can’t completely understand the lecturer
explanation. Knowing the result of the study towards reading V class, this
