Erving Goffman's dramaturgical theory provides an overview of the daily lives of individuals that occur on a stage. In the show there are two parts, namely the front stage which consists of setting, appearance and attitude.
 Novelty/Originality of this study: The research that is currently being carried out is updated with different approaches from the four high school teachers, resulting in different strategies. An approach can be likened to a map of the geographical conditions of an area, while a strategy is a plan for developing the potential of that area. So, to develop student potential, a teacher must be able to understand student needs in the teaching and learning process.
