This uses a research and development design where the resulted product is an English learning based on local culture to gain students’ ability as stated earlier. The process of developing the model refers to Plomp's development phases theory, some of them are (a) the initial investigation phase, (b) the design phase, (c) the realization phase, (d) the testing, evaluation, and revision phase, and (e) the implementation phase. It refers to (a) the syntax of PBI-BBL model, (b) the social system of PBI-BBL model, (c) the reaction principle of PBI-BBL model, (d) the supporting system of PBI-BBL model, and (e) the instructional and nurturant effects of PBI-BBL model. In line with that, based on the experts’ and practitioners’ assessments, PBI-BBL model is reckoned to be valid and ready to be tested. The results achieved are: (a) PBI-BBL model is practical because almost the component aspects are fully implemented and (b) PBI-BBL model is effective because the classical completeness has been achieved, the learning activity is done as expected, the teacher's ability to manage the learning is excellent, students 'responses to learning are positive, and students' social skill have increased. Thus, the development of PBI-BBL model has met the criteria of valid, practical, and effective and the aim of obtaining the qualified PBI-BBL model has been achieved.
