Students in Indonesia study English as foreign language. Many students can write and 
read in English, but have difficulty speaking English, including have lack of self?confidence. Speaking English is something that students must master if they want to 
communicate with outsiders. By applying the technique of speaking English one 
minute a day, the researcher wished the students to have confidence and improve their 
vocabulary and make students accustomed to saying words in English. 
The objectives of the study were (1) to find out the extent of speaking performance of 
the student who are taught using the one-minute talk technique. (2) to investigate the 
extent of speaking performance of the student who are taught without using the one?minute talk technique. (3) to discover whether there are differences in speaking 
performance between students who are taught using one-minute talk technique and 
those who are taught without using one-minute talk technique. The design of this 
research was quantitative-experimental. The population of this research is seventh 
grade of SMP N 1 Juwana, and the sample of this research is 7A as experimental class 
and 7B as control class. The researcher gave pre-test and post-test to students in the 
form of spoken descriptive text with the theme of people or place. 
There was significant difference between classes taught using the One Minute Talk 
technique and classes taught without the One Minute Talk Technique in the 
pronunciation, grammar, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension. That was supported by 
the data, in which the mean score of student in Experimental Class was 68,62 and the
mean score of student in Control Class was 53,75, and accepted hypothesis. So, the 
teacher must use the technique in teaching speaking because it could help the teacher 
convey the material to students and motivate their interest in developing speaking 
ability}
