The study employs a quasi-experimental design. Participants in this research are 10th-grade students at SMA Negeri 4 Tanjungpinang, specifically class X.5 as the experimental group and X.6 as the control group. To assess the benefits of the immersive technique, both pre-tests and post-tests in speaking performance were conducted. The speaking test data were analyzed using mean statistical analysis and Z-test. The mean score for the experimental group was 71.57, while for the control group it was 68.17. The average score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group. The Z-test results for both groups were 0.013 < 0.025, indicating that students taught using the immersive technique showed a significantly greater improvement in speaking performance compared to those taught using the lecture technique between the pre-test and post-test scores.} }
