Classroom interaction then is the one of facilitator to start conversation, as Nunan (1991:50) argued in two-way tasks (conversational interaction), all participants have a piece of informational known only to them which must be contributed to the small group discussion for the task to be completed successfully. The writer used qualitative research design and took one of the kinds of qualitative research method, which is a case study. The data obtained from the triangulation instruments.

The results show that 92% of the students are aware about the important of classroom interaction in their speaking skill and 56% of them need their teacher to be guider as well as motivator with the number 24% to encourage them to interact and speak in the classroom.
