Abstract

This study explored the effectiveness of the Make a Match cooperative learning method in improving English speaking skills among seventh-grade students at SMP Ya BAKII 4 Kawunganten. The experimental group, which used the Make a Match method, showed a significant improvement in their speaking scores from 45.19 before the intervention to 65.00 after. In contrast, the control group, which followed traditional teaching methods, improved from 40.37 to 52.04. Statistical tests confirmed that these differences were significant. Make a Match involves students pairing question and answer cards, encouraging active participation and communication. This method not only enhanced speaking skills but also reduced students' anxiety, increased their confidence, and created a more engaging learning environment. Additionally, it helped develop social skills like teamwork and cooperation. Overall, Make a Match proved to be an effective strategy for teaching English speaking skills in junior high school settings.
