CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background of the Study
Speaking is an interactive process of constructing meaning that involves
producing and receiving and processing information (Brown, 1994; Burns &
Joyce, 1997). And speaking is an essential tool for communicating. It is one of
form to get information toward oral communication in the world. It becomes more
useful to every person who wants to learn English.
In most conversation, the word flows, with the least mental argue. People
think about what to say, whom they are talking to, where they are talking to and
also they need to know how many times they talk, focusing on their accuracy and
fluency are the main learning process to get better for the students especially in
their speaking performance.
There are several students who want to have a good skill especially in
speaking. According to rubric that proposed by Madsen (1983: 3), the highest
level of speaking ability is when students can speak clearly, have fluent
communication and there is no errors of grammar. It makes the students to
compile a sentence or speech which is not only good but also right and easy to
understand.
According to Ur (1996), there are many factors that cause difficulty in
speaking, and they are as follow: 1) Inhibition. Students are worried about making
mistakes, fearful of criticism of simply shy. 2) Nothing to say. Students have no
motive to express themselves. 3) Low or uneven participation. Only one
participant can talk a time because of large classes and the tendency on some
learners to dominate, while others speak very little or not at all. 4) Mother-tongue
use. Learners who share the same mother tongue tend to use it because it is easier
and because learners feel less exposed if they are speaking their mother tongue.
In improving of teaching methodology discipliner of knowledge has given
lots of contributions to teachers in their duties of teaching around the world. One
of them is peer teaching Method, it is a method which allows the learners to
create, motive and regulate themselves. Peer teaching is a method of self-
regulated learning which allows the learners to exercise control over the
acquisition of skills and knowledge (Smith, 2001). According to Boud, at al
(2001) Peer teaching involves students learning from and with each other in ways
which are mutually beneficial and involve sharing knowledge, ideas and
experience between participants. The emphasis is on the learning process,
including the emotional support that learners offer each other, as much as the
learning itself.
Base on the explanation above, this method is very suitable to be used to
overcome the problems that faced in the students. The center of the knowledge is
not in the teacher anymore because the center of the knowledge is in some of
students. It happened because in peer teaching method, a student involves student
learning each other. This method also directly will force student to be an active
participants in the learning process and help to build interpersonal and
communicative skills in among students. Because of this, peer teaching or peer
tutoring method is very suitable to be applied to the students.
1.2. Statement of the Problem
Base on the backgrounds discussed above, this research is focused on the
analysis of using peer teaching method in improving speaking ability of the
students, the writer formulated the research question as follow:
1. How is the response of the students taught to Peer Teaching Method used
to improve their speaking ability at MA Persis 112 Bogor?
2. What is the effect of Peer Teaching Method toward speaking ability of
students?
1.3. Objective of the Research
Based on the statement of the problem above, there are two objectives of
this research. They are:
1. To know the students’ response to Peer Teaching Method used to
improve their speaking ability.
2. To know the effect of Peer teaching Method toward speaking ability of
students after being taught using Peer teaching Method.
1.4. The Scope and Limitation of Study
This topic is very large and because of the limitation, in this study the
researcher just focuses on improving the students’ speaking skill at students of
eleventh grade MA PERSIS 112 BOGOR by using Peer Teaching Method in the
classroom action research.
1.5. Significant of the Study
The result of this research is expected to be useful to know that the Peer
Teaching Method improves students’ speaking ability. It is expected to be useful
for teacher, students and other researchers.
First, teachers are able to use this method as an interesting method in other
that the students can understand more easily. In learning speaking because this
method is a versatile and simple method to improve student’s speaking skill. This
method helps students become active participants in learning English especially in
speaking.
Second, students can increase the mental of students to speak in front of
their friends and can improve the students’ ability in speaking. The students are
able to have more confident when reporting ideas to whole class. In addition the
“peer teaching method” step of strategy ensures that students teach other students.
Finally, while this method may appear to be time consuming, it makes the
classroom more productive, as students have already had an opportunity to teach
another student before plugging into whole-class convers. This is great way to
motivate students and promote higher-level thinking. Even though the activity is
called Peer Teaching, this is the term many instructors use for pairs and small
groups (four or five students). Often this group discussion “sharing” is followed
up with a larger classroom discussion to solve the problem that the teachers give.
Third, it is useful for further researcher who are interested in doing
researches on teaching speaking using Peer Teaching Method at senior high
school level because this study gives basic information to do the further
researchers, and also for researcher who wants to make Peer Teaching Method as
one of variables that can be used to their researcher to improve the students’
speaking ability.
1.6. The Definition of Key Terms
In order to avoid misunderstanding and misinterpretation in this paper, the
definition of technical terms are given, the writer defines them as follows:
1. Speaking is a language skill to communicate with other orally
(Sugiman, 1995; 326).
2. Speaking is a communicate threat express the idea, feeling. Massage by
using the voice to people (Oxford dictionary).
3. Speaking ability is a part of language capability that consists of
linguistic competence (William little Wood; 1996: P6).
4. Improving (derived from improve) means become getter an effect to
make something getter, the similar meaning with increase (Hornby,
1994).
5. Peer teaching is a method of self-regulated learning which allows the
learner to exercise control over the acquisition of skill or knowledge
(Smith, 2001).
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED TO LITERATURE
In this chapter consists of some theories related to the research. They are:
(1) Theory of Speaking, (2) Strategies of Teaching Speaking, (3) The theory of
Peer Teaching Method, (4) Previous Study, and (5) Theoretical Conclusion.
2.1. The Theory of Speaking
In this paragraph the researcher will describe about the theory of speaking.
Speaking is the active and productive skill. It is very important in other to enable
students to communicate effectively through oral language because the disability
of the students to speak may lead them to be unable to express their ideas even in
the small form of conversation.
In addition Cameron (2001:40) states that speaking is the active of use
language to express meaning so that other people can make sense of them.
Moreover, it is recognized as an interactive, social and contextualized
communicative event. It is supported by Brown (2001:267), says that speaking is
an interactive process of constructing meaning that involves producing, receiving,
and processing information. It means that through speaking, people can get any
information what they want and they need and also people can communicate and
interact with other people.
Based on the explanation about the theory of speaking above the writer can
conclude that speaking is the important skill of language which is about
expressing his/her ideas interactively, opinion or feelings to others by using words
and sounds of articulations in order to inform, to persuade and to entertain which
supported by opportunity and ability.
In teaching process, the teacher should use the strategy of teaching to make
students active in the class especially in speaking class. There are some strategies
which can be used in teaching speaking and it can improve students’ speaking
ability especially in SMAN 1 DUKUPUNTANG CIREBON.
2.1. Strategies of Teaching Speaking
A various number of speaking teaching strategies are utilized and used in
the classrooms for many circumstances. Among others, the strategies of teaching
speaking are cooperative activities, role-play, creative tasks, and drilling.
First, Cooperative activities can encourage negotiation of language item
(Newton and Nation, 2009). It means that cooperative activities can encourage
students to be an active participant in the class.
Second, Role plays are activities where students are asked to pretend to be
in various social contexts and various social roles (Harmer, 2001; Thornbury,
2005; Solcova, 2011). It means that role play activities can make students creative
to share about their idea and experiences.
Third, Creative tasks resemble real-life tasks as Solcova (2011) asserts that
students develop their fluency best, if engaged in tasks where all their
concentration focuses on producing something, rather than on the language itself.
Fourth, Drilling, as Thornbury (2005) argues, is a strategy to improve
pronunciation by imitating and repeating words, phrases, and even whole
utterances. It functions to make students pay attention to the new materials and
emphasize words, phrases, or utterances on students’ mind, move new items from
working memory to long term memory, provide means of gaining articulatory
control over language (Thornbury, 2005).
In addition, designing activities for teaching speaking requires some
principles to consider. Firstly, speaking activities need to maximize the production
of language to provide the best conditions for autonomous language use (Brown,
2001; Thornbury, 2005). Secondly, the activities should be performed in
situations where students can show interest, understanding, and ask questions or
make comments, called interactivity, and include competitive element where
students work together to achieve certain purpose (Thornbury, 2005). Thirdly,
teachers bear in mind what student needs, from language-based focus on accuracy
to message-based focus on interaction, meaning, and fluency to encourage the use
of authentic language in meaningful contexts (Brown, 2001).
Besides, meaningful contexts for each activity is important to relate new
material with what has been learned and experienced by students so that it can be
stored in the long-term memory of students (Brown, 2001; Richards and Rodgers,
2002) Meanwhile, the functions of speaking including talk as transaction aims to
exchange information or goods, and talk as interaction aims to maintain social
relationship (Brown and Yule, 1999; Brown, 2001; Bailey, 2005; Thornbury,
2005; Richards, 2008).
Base on the explanation above the researcher will teach speaking through
one of strategies in learning English to improve students’ speaking ability by
using Peer Teaching Method.
2.2. The Theory of Peer Teaching Method
In this paragraph the researcher will talk about peer teaching. Peer Teaching
is one of ranges learning strategies. It can be formal and informal activity.
Learning models that are considered to have high effectiveness is Peer Teaching
Method, according to Boud, et al. (2001) is Peer Teaching or called Peer Learning
that: Peer teaching involves students learning from and with each other in
knowledge in ideas between participant. The emphasis is one the learning process
including in emotional support that learners offer each other, as much as learning
itself.
The term Peer Tutoring contains the same meaning Peer Tutor and Peer
Teaching. Silberman (2006) in Iva (2009) explains that Peer teaching is one of
approach teaching to get requires learner to be able to teach other students. By
Peer teaching approach students are required to discuss actively with their peers or
do group tasks given by the teacher, weather tasks is done at home or at school.
In addition Peer Teaching is a learning strategy suitable for adult learning
(andragogy) and self-direction. According to Jarvis (2001) Peer Teaching is a
learner centered activity because the members of the educational and facilitate
learning opportunities for each other.
Base on the explanation about the definition of peer teaching method above.
The writer can conclude that peer teaching is a method of learning process that
students teach other students because through peer teaching approach students feel
comfortable and easy to get any information from other students.
2.3. Teaching Speaking Through Peer Teaching Method
Peer teaching learning method is an interactive learning strategy with peer
tutor teaching system that will help underprivileged learners or less quickly
receive lessons from their teachers. Peer tutor activities for learners are activities
that are rich in actual experience and are the needs of the learners themselves.
Tutor or Tutee equally benefit, for tutor will get experience, being tutee will be
more creative in receiving lesson.
It seems easier for learners to express opinions or thoughts and difficulties
to their own friends than to teachers, learners more embarrassed. This is possible
because among learners has formed their own language, behavior, and also
feelings that can be accepted by all students
According to A Martz and Timothy E. Heron (1994). They present Peer
Teaching lessons in the following stages:
a. Make preparations
In the first step, the teacher has to make preparation before learning with
Peer Teaching learning method, they are:
1) Guidance format
Teachers should consider the characteristics of students, available
resources, and objectives of learning to maximize the achievement of learning
objectives.
2) Select a partner
Participants can be paired by teachers, either randomly, based on skill
level, or with special consideration for learners with behavior or achievement,
participants present, each spent 5 to 10 minutes as a tutor.
3) Train tutors
Training the tutor is done to avoid mistakes in presenting the results of
group discussion.
4) Set the learning atmosphere
Setting the learning atmosphere requires the teacher's role in scheduling.
Guidance can be implemented as little as once a week or as often as every
day. However, at least 2-3 days a week it is recommended that tutors and
tutees be able to use trained behavior. The guidance usually lasts 30 minutes,
with 20 minutes provided for learning and 10 minutes for tests, reviews and
transitions
b. Run the program
In this stage the teacher should prepare the program before teaching in the
class, they are:
1) Pre-test
2) Exercise
3) Test
c. Enrichment and extension
Additional Practice provides enrichment and expansion of activities related to
the topic of learning. For example, if learners practice speaking, they may use
groups of discussion and many other skills can be included in the extension
program. Teachers are reminded to direct where facts, applications, or concepts
can be entered or extended. This procedure serves as a good review and facilitates
generalization with new situations.
2.4. Previous Study
Previous study is the review of relevant research that has been conducted in
which it reviews the previous research that is relevant to the present research. In
conducting this study, the researcher wants to improve students’ speaking ability
using Peer Teaching Method. The researcher used the following previous studies
as the basic consideration to conduct this present study.
The researcher has found relevant previous studies which are relevant to this
research. There are two previous studies that the researcher chose. The first study
was conducted by Risnawati (2014) from English Department of FKIP UMMY
Solok, entitledThe Effect of Using Think Pair Share TechniqueIn Increasing
Students Ability On Descriptive Text (an Experimental Research At The Eight
Grade Students of SMPN 5 Kubung at 2013/2014 Academic Year). This research
was conducted in two classes. The first class (VIII-2) was as experimental class
and the second class (VIII-3) was as the control class. The students of both classes
were given pre-test to know their ability in speaking skill, after that the students
were given a post test. The result of the test was analyzed by using t-test. From the
test, it was found that tcalculatedwas higher than ttablewhere Tcalculated= 2,25 and
Ttable(0,975:42) = 2,00, thus Ho hypothesis was rejected and H1 hypothesis was
accepted. In conclusion, there was significant improvement of Think Pair Share
technique applied toward the speaking ability of descriptive text of the eight grade
students of SMP N 5 Kubung in the academic year 2013/2014.
The second is from Sindy Diaz & Juan Carlos Laguado (2013) who
conducted a research on “Improving Reading Skills Trough Skimming and
Scanning Techniques”. Maxwell (1969) defines skimming as getting the main
idea or gist of a selection quickly in a written text. While scanning, which is
defined as the ability to locate specific facts and details quickly, is regarded as a
desirable reading skill and is taught in most developmental reading courses. This
research adopted an action research design by Burn (1999), action research carries
out a rationalized six-steps procedure, which consist of: identifying problems,
analysis of problems, formulating ideas or hypothesis, gathering and interpreting
data, implementation-action and evaluating the result of action. They found four
main categories emerged after the research. One of the categories is motivation
increases the effectiveness of skimming and scanning techniques. The motivation
was essential since it helped to change the students’ perceptions toward reading in
English. For example before the implementation of the project, it was noticed that
participant had a negative attitude when facing texts that required comprehension,
however, after working with the two techniques their attitude changed, since the
participants worked more actively and with interest on the different texts making
their reading process more effective.
Overall, this research is different from the studies above. The different is that
those researchers above used experimental and class action research.
In the experimental research, she used verification of the theory to know if the
method was successful for improving students’ speaking skill or not. In the class
action research they used teaching reading comprehension toward skimming and
scanning techniques. They used one of the main categories to increase the
effectiveness of skimming and scanning techniques that is motivation. But in this
research, the researcher used teaching using peer teaching method to improve
students speaking ability, and the sample will be taken at first grade of SMAN 1
Dukupuntang Cirebon.
2.5. TheoreticalConclusion
The writer used some theories in conducting this research. The first is the
theory of speaking. Theory of speaking is the main part of speaking.
Brown (2001:267) said that speaking is interactive process of constructing
meaning that involves producing, receiving and processing information. Strategy
of teaching is really needed in teaching speaking because it can improve students’
speaking ability. There are four strategies, they are: cooperative activities, role
play, creative tasks, and drilling.
Then the researcher used peer teaching method to improve students’
speaking ability. According to Boud, et al. (2001) is Peer Teaching or called Peer
Learning that: Peer teaching involves students learning from and with each other
in knowledge in ideas between participants. The emphasis is one the learning
process including in emotional support that learners offer each other, as much as
learning itself. According to A Martz and Timothy E Heron (1994). They present
Peer Teaching lessons in the following stages: those are making preparation, run
the program, and enrichment and extension.
CHAPTHER III
RESEARCH METHOD
Research method is an important component of the important in the study.
This chapter consists of six parts the type of research, they are: (1) The research
design, (2) The subject of study, (3) Data source, (4) Data gathering, (5) Data
analysis, and (6) The criterion of the action success.
3.1. The Research Design
Nowadays, in teaching English, a teacher usually makes and needs
development and empowerment into his class. One way to improve the quality of
teaching English process is to do Classroom Action Research (CAR). The term
“Class Action Research” is very familiar with English teacher, particularly
professional or certified teacher, in doing this research, the teacher also functions
as the researcher because it involves the teacher inside the classroom rather than
being carried out solely by specialist from outside the classroom (Philliphs& Carr,
2010). The researcher decided to conduct an action research by implementing the
model proposed by Kemmis&Mc Taggart model as cited in Burn (2010:7-9).
There are four phases in a cycle of research using Kemmis&Mc Taggart model,
they are: Planning, Action, Observation, and Reflection in the Class Action
Research (CAR).
3.2. The Subject of Study
This classroom action research will be focused on topic of improving
students’ speaking ability through peer teaching method. The subject of this study
is the students in the first grade of SMAN 1 Dukupuntang Cirebon.
3.3. Data Source
Data is very importantsource of information. To complete the data in this
research, the writer commits the steps to take the data from the following data
source. They are: interview, observation and tests.
3.3.1. Interview
The writer will conduct interview of SMAN 1 Dukupuntang Cirebon.
The writer will interview the English teacher and then will interview students
of first grade SMAN 1 Dukupuntang Cirebon. First the writer will ask about,
the weakness of students in speaking English, the ability of the students in
memorizing vocabulary, the activeness of the students in learning English
especially in speaking, and the difficulties of the students get in pronunciation.
Then the writer will ask the students about the difficulties in speaking and in
memorizing vocabulary, the weakness in mastering speaking and about the
pronunciation. The writer will know the students’ difficulties and deficiency in
English speaking and the writer will make some notes about the information.
3.3.2. Observation
The writer will do observation in the first grade of SMAN 1
Dukupuntang the preliminary study while he will teach in the class and also the
writer will observe the students’ response, the class situation and the class
activities then the writer will write any information that the writer has got from
this observation in his notebook and then the writer tries to analyze the
problems have found in the class.
3.3.3. Tests
The researcher will give the test after implementing the teaching strategy
that the researcher chooses, and hewill compare the result of the students’ test
score. Then the researcher will ask for the students’ score before implementing
the strategy to the English teacher. When the test has shown the success will
stop in cycle one. But when the students still do not get the success, the
researcher will continue to cycle two.
3.4. Data Gathering
In this research the researcher will act in the classroom action research not
only as the researcher but also as the teacher, the planner, and also he will make
the test in each final cycle, collect the data, analyze and report the result of the
research.
The model of action research will use in this study is the model developed
by Kemmis and Mc Taggart (1992). The model consists of four steps: (1)
planning of the action, (2) implementing of the action, (3) observing of the
actionand (4) making analysis and reflection. Here is the explanation about four
phases.

In this part, the researcher will identify the problem that will be faced by
the teacher and the students in teaching and learning process. The problem will be
identifiedas follows:
3.4.1.1. The interview
Before applying Class Action Research and strategy of learning that the
researcher chooses, the researcher will give the questionnaire to the teacher and
also to the students. It will be an unstructured interview. It will be done on
Saturday, 25th November 2017 to the teacher and Monday, 27th November
2017 to the students. After that the researcher will ask to the teacher and
students some questions in different place and time. The plans of the interview
are as follows:
3.4.1.1.1. The Interview to the English Teacher
In this part the researcher will give some questions to the teacher.
They are:
(1) howare the response of students and attitude of students to the
lesson of English in the class?
(2) What is the value of KKM that school gives to the students in
English lesson especially in speaking?
(3) Is there a student who can reach the standard of score KKM?
(4) What makes students felling difficult to speak or say in English?
(5) What skill method has been used in teaching speaking?
(6) What problems are often experienced when teaching speaking?
(7) Is there any other method to overcome the problem of students
in learning English especially in speaking?
3.4.1.1.2. The Interview to The Students
In this part, the researcher will ask the students several questions.
They are:
(1) How is the response of student to speaking lesson?
(2) What makes speaking difficult for the students?
(3) Is the method given by the teacher make them interested to learn
English especially in speaking?
3.4.1.2. The Class of Observation
In this part, the researcher will conduct observation at first grade of
SMAN 1 Dukupuntang Cirebon in academic year of 2017/2018. The
observation will be done on Tuesday, November 28th 2017. It will start at 08.00
a.m and will finish at 09.30 a.m. the researcher will observe how the teacher
will give the lesson and teach the students. And also the researcher will join to
the class and analyze the problems during learning English in the class.

According to Kemmis’ model, the observation step will be done after
doing acting step, but in the practice it will be done in the same time. After
doing the activity, then doing the observation is done. In the observation, the
writer will note the activities and notice everything in the classroom, then the
writer will write all which happen in the classroom, will carry out observation
sheet, to write the information about the students’ response, the students’
activities, and situation in the classroom, etc.
3.4.2.4. Reflecting Phase
The Reflectingphase is to make evaluation from three previous steps.It
will be done based on the data that will have been collected to hold evaluation
for completing the observation and action result. After implementing the
