Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the potential impact of the show and tell approach on the speaking skills of eighth-grade students at SMPN 7 Kabupaten Sorong. The study employed a pre-experimental quantitative research design, specifically utilizing a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design. The sample for this study comprised 25 eighth-grade students from SMPN 7 Kabupaten Sorong. The researcher selected this class due to the presence of issues pertaining to students' oral communication skills. During the data collection process, the researcher employed six oral speaking exams for both the pretest and posttest. The researcher utilized SPSS 20 version to evaluate the data. The research findings indicate that the pair sample T-test yielded a p-value of 0.00, suggesting a significant impact. The two sample T-test yielded a P value of 0.00, which is less than the significance level of 0.05. The rejection of HO and acceptance of Ha were observed. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) posited that there exists a significant impact by employing the show and tell approach in teaching speaking skills, as evidenced by the pretest and posttest results. The show and tell method has a significant impact on training speaking skills.

Abstract

The English language skills of students at State Vocational School 44 Jakarta are very diverse; some are very good, some are pretty good, some are passable, and many are still lacking, so improving English in the school environment is necessary. One indicator that more students are less able to use English to communicate is seen from the TOEIC Prediction Test Score, which has only reached 26.5% for students who got a TOEIC score above 405. Apart from improving competency, this training also aims to determine predicted TOEIC scores and increase English communication skills for SMK Negeri 44 Jakarta students. This activity is carried out as training before taking the TOEIC Prediction Test, which is conducted for 6 hours (3 hours per day). Introductory training about TOEIC and how to do TOEIC questions, which total 200 questions, is an effort to get a TOEIC score above 400. Implementing this activity is carried out by providing training in the form of delivering Listening Comprehension and Reading Comprehension material, discussions, and TOEIC test simulations, including listening and reading skills. Two hundred students of SMK Negeri 44 Jakarta attended this activity. The activity results showed increased knowledge about TOEIC, how to answer TOEIC questions, and student competence in the TOEIC test. It can be seen from the questionnaire distributed after attending the training. The questionnaire results showed an increase in students' knowledge of the TOEIC test with a percentage of 90% and an increase in students' English competence to communicate using English. However, it still needs to be better regarding value or score improvement. The highest TOEIC score from test participants was 890, and the lowest TOEIC score was 60. Of the total 200 students, 53 students got a score above 405 or still only 26.5%, so to get better results, it is recommended that the training time be increased to 10 -12 hours.
