B. The Teaching Speaking Through Storytelling Technique
Storytelling is the "mother" of all communications Every art form relies on
Story to convey meaning. Despite this truth, many communicators only approach
storytelling as an adjunct to their speaking and presenting Storytelling is a practical
and powerful teaching tool, especially for language learning Teachers in language
classrooms, however, may hesitate to incorporate storytelling into language
instruction because of an alreadv overloaded curriculum
There are many ways to use stones in the oral English classroom It is also
advised to encourage the students tc find more interesting stories and create different
ways to use them. Besides, in the course of looking for, rewriting and completing
stories, their reading, writing and imagination can be further developed; teamwork
and friendship will become stronger by working in groups
Pragmatically speaking, storytelling can be very therapeutic. It provides
students with a very purposeful and intentional framework in which they can take the
role of either the listener or the teller, thus expanding their ability to employ sound
and appropriate judgments. By assuming either role, students who actively engage in
the storytelling process increase the fluency of their verbal expression .

E. The Discussion
Having ability in English speaking is very important for students students feel
doubtful to speak the language because their lacks of practicing the language in the
capacity of foreign language, therefore the researcher should try to help the students
to achieve this ability Teacher should do some efforts by trying to give the
atmosphere of the classroom more interesting and enjoyable for the students to
practice the language. Storytelling technique was really effective to improve the
students speaking skill. After all steps of this class action research, the researcher
tried to see to find the relation of all steps.
In Cycle 1 ,the situation and condition of classroom did not work well. It
happened because there are alot of students there So the situation is very crowded.
And students were not accustomed to speak english, so they are not too fluent to
speak English
During teaching and learning process and role play that has been done by
students. Only a few students spoke English fluently and there are students who are
having very poor ability to pronounce English and there are some students did not
confidence to speak in front of classroom. Most of students were not responsive and
passive to do some conversation in English They often used Indonesian language for
their interaction.
Based on class in cycle 1, it implied that most of students were not enough to
practice English and having very poor ability to pronounce and vocabularies. From
the table of of evaluation score of using storytelling technique in cycle 1 by material
"kinds of instructions in English " it showed that target of speaking score average
score of speaking practice was 5 !7 the highest score was 7.0 . the lowest score was
3.8 .
In Cycle 2 ,the situation and condition of classroom began well The student paid
full of attention, although still there are some students who made a noise in a
classroom. During teaching and learning process the students more focused on
material to be presented. The role play that has been done by students in their own
group, made students more confidence and brave to perform in front of classroom.
Their pronounciation is getting better. Only a few students who has a difficulties in
pronounce some words. And most of student can understand the content of the role
play that they have played.
Based on class in Cycle 2, it implied that most students were active enough to
practice English speaking They had found their motivation they can improve their
speaking ability. In cycle 2, the Classroom action research in cycle 2 formative score
that there are still 4 students obtained score under 6,0 it means it is still 7.5 % of total
of students and two of them are the students with learning disability problem and
teacher must paid full of attention with them.
In Cycle 3, the situation and condition of classroom began very well. The
student paid full of attention and more enthusiastically, they were accustomed to
speaking English and more confidence
During teaching and learning process the students more focused on material to
be presented. Some students practice English speaking more interactively. They could
speak English interestingly for their interaction. There is no students be wary to
repeat after teacher pronounce new vocabularies. Class atmosphere is more lively,
because all of student were active . The Storytelling technique made students more
confidence and brave to perform in front of classroom. Based on class in cycle 3, it
implied that most students were Active enough to practice English speaking. They
had found their motivation . they can improve their speaking ability it could be
explainned that most students were active enough to practice English speaking
ability. They had found their speaking motivation to do hard and effectively. They
could understand to practice their English speaking ability. From the table of
evaluation score of using storytelling technique, it showed improvement significantly.
It showed the average score of speaking practice was 7,7 more than the target
score, ,the highest score was 8,6. And the lowest one was 6,5.
Teaching speaking to improve the students' speaking ability was little bit
difficult. That is teachers' responsibility to make easier to his/ her students. The
students had lack of confidence and self motivation to speak English and they always
afraid to make mistake. So the classroom athmosphere must be more interesting for
students to practice and to overcome inhibitions to practice the English language
speaking. And they can be more spirit to understand and practice the English
speaking.
Storytelling to improve students' speaking ability was more enjoyable. The
students were able to build interaction with their clasmates withot feeling shy. And
students di not feel worry to made mistakes in speaking English.

had advantages cr :trength and disavantages or weakness. Some of the advantages of
using storytelling technique as follows :

8. The Storytelling can be used to help the students to think about the deeper
meanings of the content. Almost all stories carry some type of moral or ethical
message and understanding.
While the weakness or disavantages were that: 1. The storytelling needs more time
to make students understand and try to play a storytelling role play.
2. The storytelling spens much time to accomplish one role play in storytelling
techn'n.ue.

they want to play in front of classroom and get difficulty to make improvisation
when they speak English. They just follow what teacher practiced.
