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.
