Abstract


This study examines the impact of the Hello Talk application on elementary students' speaking achievement. A quasi-experimental design was used, with an experimental group using Hello Talk for speaking practice and a control group receiving traditional classroom instruction. 40 elementary students were randomly assigned to either group. Pretests and posttests were given to both groups, and data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA. Findings showed the experimental group had a significant improvement in speaking achievement (posttest mean score: 89.5) compared to the control group (77.2). The statistical analysis demonstrated a significant difference (p<0.05). The study aimed to investigate Hello Talk's impact on speaking achievement. The quasi-experimental design included an experimental group using Hello Talk and a control group with traditional instruction. Results indicated significant improvement in speaking achievement for the experimental group. Hello Talk enhances students' speaking skills through real-life language learning experiences and interactions with native speakers. Limitations include small sample size and the need to explore impact on other language skills, motivation, and experience. This research contributes insights into the potential of Hello Talk as a language learning tool.
