Abstract

The research aimed to determined whether Daily Conversation Method is effective in increasing students‘ pronunciation ability. Students often experience difficulties in pronouncing English vocabulary accurately due to the influence of their first language. As a result, this problem affects students‘ ability to communicate clearly in English. This research was conducted at the eighth grade of MTs Negeri 1 East Lampung from January 26th until February 5th 2026.

To address this problem, this research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. Data were collected through pronunciation tests in the form of pre-test and post-test. The population of this research was the Eighth grade students of MTs Negeri 1 East Lampung. The sample consisted of 67 students selected through a random sampling technique and divided into two group namely, experimental class and control class. The data were collected through pronunciation tests in the form of pre-test and post-test. The experimental class was taught using the Daily Conversation Method, while the control class was taught using conventional teaching method. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 27. The normality test showed that the data were not normally distributed. Therefore, the Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the difference between the two groups.

Based on the results of this research showed that the students‘ pronunciation scores in the experimental class were higher than in the control class after the treatment. the mean score in the experimental class increased from 74.13 in the pre-test to 80.75 in the post-test, while the control class increased from 72.26 to 76.8. Although both classes showed better results after the learning process, the increase in the experimental class was more noticeable. In addition, the statistical analysis showed that the Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) value was 0.012, which is lower than the significance level of 0.05. this indicates that there was a significant difference between the two classes. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted and the null hypothesis (Ho) was rejected. It can be concluded that the Daily Conversation Method has a significant effect on students‘ pronunciation of vocabulary at the eighth grade of MTs Negeri 1 East Lampung.
