This research was aimed at improving students’ speaking ability of the class VIII C students of SMP Negeri 3 Depok Sleman Yogyakarta in the academic year of 2013/2014. The problem was that they had low speaking ability. This particular research was categorized as action research. The actions were implemented in two cycles based on the class schedule. This research involved the 32 students of class VIII C of SMP Negeri 3 Depok Sleman Yogyakarta in the academic year of 2013/2014 and the English teacher as the research collaborator. The data of the study were in the forms of qualitative and quantitative data. The qualitative data were obtained by observing the teaching and learning process of speaking, interviewing the students of class VIII C and the English teacher, holding discussion with the collaborator and taking pictures and recording videos. Meanwhile, the quantitative data were acquired through pre-test, progress test, and post test.
