Abstract

This research aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) strategy in improving the speaking skills of eighth-grade students at SMPN 5 Padang Panjang. This study employed a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test and post-test. The sample consisted of 20 students selected randomly from a total of 32 students. The instruments used were speaking tests (pre-test and post-test) and interviews as supporting data. The findings revealed that the students’ post-test scores were higher than their pre-test scores. A t-test with a degree of freedom (df) = 19 resulted in t-count = 10.78, while the t-table at the 0.05 significance level was 2.093. Since t-count > t-table, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) was accepted, indicating a significant difference between pre-test and post-test results. Qualitative data from interviews also supported this finding, showing that students felt more motivated, confident, and assisted in improving their speaking skills through the TSTS strategy. Therefore, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) strategy is effective in improving students’ speaking skills at SMPN 5 Padang Panjang.
