Abstract


This research outlines the talk show strategy (TSS), an effort junior high school students made in learning English. This research aimed (i) to explain how students develop their speaking skills throughout the implementation of the talk show strategy in their English learning; (ii) to explain any obstacles encountered while the implementation of the talk show strategy in their class setting; and (iii) to analyze the students' perceptions of the talk show strategy implementation in their classroom. This research presented as an inquiry case study that looked at how the participants improve their speaking skills through talk show. By using study case method, this research gathered data via observation, interviews, and questionnaires and analyzed it using the narrative analysis technique by analyzing the triangulation data. The research included 21 students from Santo Aloysius Junior High School Bandung. The research results reveal that (i) the students improve their speaking English because they are actively involved in the talk show in the class; (ii) some challenges are encountered, such as team work and lack of confident; however, they see these as opportunities to improve their English and other skills; and (iii) the students mention improvements in their English and an increase in their creative skills after implementing TSS for their education. Finally, implementing TSS in English classroom especially in Junior High Schools is worth doing.
