Abstract

ABSTRACT Nadhifatuzzahro’. Registered number. 2813133078. 2017. The Effectiveness of Three Steps Interview (TSI) Technique towards the Students’ Speaking Ability at the Tenth Grade of MA Al Maarif Tulungagung. Thesis. English Education Program of State Islamic Institute of Tulungagung. Advisor: Dr. Erna Iftanti, M.Pd. Keyword: Effectiveness, TSI, students’ speaking ability Speaking as an interactive process becomes an important skill in English that should be mastered by the students. Speaking is an activity that involves a speaker and listener to interact with each other and to transfer information. Thus, the mastery of speaking is necessary to be improved so that the pupils can express their idea, opinions, and feeling and to give response towards the other people say. In fact, there are many students nowadays who cannot speak well. The teaching strategy used by the teachers is one of the reasons why the students have problem in speaking. This phenomenon happened in MA Al Ma’arif Tulungagung where most of the students of the seventh grade cannot speak fluently. Due to this matter, it is necessary to find out an alternative strategy which can help the students improve their speaking ability. Thus, the researcher intended to verify if the TSI is effective to improve the students’ speaking ability. The formulation of research problems are: 1) How is the students’ speaking ability before being taught by using TSI? 2) How is the students’ speaking ability after being taught by using TSI? 3) Is there any significant difference before and after being taught by using TSI towards the students’ speaking ability? The purposes of this study were: 1) To know the students’ speaking ability before being taught by using TSI. 2) To know the students’ speaking ability after being taught by using TSI. 3) To know the significant difference score before and after being taught by using TSI towards students’ speaking ability This study used a quantitative approach with pre-experimental design. The population was the entire students of the tenth grade of MA Al Ma’arif Tulungagung that consists of three classes. The sample of this study is a single group, that is X-A consisting of 20 students that is chosen by purposive sampling. Therefore, the researcher used one group pre test and post test design. The instrument used in pre test and post test is speaking test. In analyzing the data, the researcher uses SPSS calculation. According to the result of this study, the students’ mean score of pre test is 62.50 and the mean score of post test is 73.50. The significant level of statistical calculation is 0.000 where it is lower than the significant value 0.05 (0.000<0.05). This indicates that the alternative hypothesis stating that there is an effectiveness of using TSI towards the students’ speaking ability at the tenth grade of MA Al Ma’arif is accepted. In conclusion, TSI is effective to improve the students’ speaking ability not only in the level of Junior High School, but also in the level of Senior High School. It also works well in unmanageable class and in the lowest level group. In line with the result of this study, TSI can be chosen as an alternative strategy to be implemented in teaching speaking.
