Abstract

Speaking is basically defined as the process of expressing ideas, notions, or information in oral form. It is a type of productive skill that consists of producing spoken utterances to convey meaning. However, many students experience difficulties in speaking due to several factors in the learning process. Based on the pre-survey data, the main problem students get is a low level of speaking skills because they have low motivation and lack confidence in their speaking skills.

Learning with the use of appropriate methods can help students with the above problems. The community language learning method is considered a solution to the above problems because this method has a positive impact on learning. In this study, researchers used Classroom Action Research (CAR), conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Researchers collected data using tests, observation, and documentation. The subjects of this study were 32 eleventh-grade students of Madrasah Aliyah Negeri (MAN) 1 Metro. This research was conducted collaboratively with the English teacher of the MAN 1 Metro boarding school.

Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that there is an increase in students' speaking skills. Starting from the pre-test results with a percentage of 15%, then in post-test I increased to 28%, and in post-test II increased to 56%. In addition, the results of student learning activities in cycle I were 75% and in cycle II were 93%. This shows that the community language learning method can improve students' speaking skills and learning activities.
