Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the potential impact of the Tongue Twister Technique on the pronunciation skills of eighth H pupils at SMPN 2 Kota Sorong. The research employed a pre-experimental research design in relation to the purpose. The sample for this study comprised 26 eight H students from SMPN 2 Kota Sorong. The researcher employed a reading exam for both the pretest and posttest in data collection. The researcher utilized the SPSS 20 software to examine and calculate the data. Upon doing an analysis of the paired sample T-test results, it was determined that the Alternative hypothesis, which posits that the Tongue Twister technique has an impact on the pronunciation of eight H pupils at SMPN 2 Kota Sorong, is supported, whereas the Null hypothesis is denied. Furthermore, the obtained P-value (0.001) is greater than the critical P-value (0.05). This indicates a statistically significant difference in the students' pronunciation scores between the pretest and posttest. The impact of the Tongue Twister technique on pupils' pronunciation can be inferred.
