This study aims to examine the effect of implementing the SAVI (Somatic, Auditory, Visual, Intellectual) active learning model on improving Arabic speaking skills (Mahārah al-Kalām) among 11th-grade students at MAN Alor NTT. A quantitative method with a pre-experimental design (One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design) was employed. The sample consisted of 30 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through oral tests (pre-test and post-test), active participation observations and documentation. Test data were analyzed using the Independent Samples T-Test and normalized gain (N-Gain) tests, while observational data were analyzed using percentage descriptive statistics. Data were analyzed using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and the Paired Sample t-Test via SPSS. The results showed a significant improvement in students' speaking skills following the implementation of the SAVI model. The mean score increased by 24.17 points, from 58.33 in the pre-test (low/fair category) to 82.50 in the post-test (good/high category). Hypothesis testing revealed a calculated -value of 27.46, exceeding the -table value () with a significance value of , leading to the rejection of and acceptance of . Thus, it can be concluded that the SAVI active learning model has a positive and significant effect on the Arabic speaking skills of students at MAN Alor NTT.
