The lack of ability to speak English properly and correctly is one of the main problems faced by high school students around RPTRA Kalideres. One of the difficult English skills for high school students around RPTRA Kalideres is the ability to communicate in English. What is often experienced by high school students around RPTRA Kalideres is wanting to say something in English but don't know what vocabulary to use and are afraid or not used to using English as a medium of communication.

Participants in this activity are junior high school students who live in RW 008 Kampung Buaran, Kalideres, West Jakarta. A total of 25 students participated in this activity. The author used a pre-test and post-test to determine the effectiveness of using the ELSA Speak application. Data is collected through tests, questionnaires and interviews to assess students' abilities and perceptions. The results show that the ELSA Speak application is effective in improving pronunciation, as shown by the scoring of the application which is higher in the post-test compared to the pre-test. In addition, questionnaire responses strongly indicate that students consider the ELSA Speak app to be an effective method for learning pronunciation.
