Popis: This research aims at proving whether or not teaching speaking skills using problem solving method can develop the students’ speaking skills of Grade XI at SMA Negeri 1 Ampibabo. The research employed a quantitative method with one class pretest-posttest design. The instrument of this research was a test. The populations of this research were the Grade XI students at SMA N 1 Ampibabo. The samples were 38 students of class XI IPA 1. The data of this research were collected by administering pretest and posttest. The results of the data analysis indicate that: the mean pretest score is 58.44, the mean posttest score is 67.13 and the t-counted value is 13.35. The t-critical value with a degree of freedom (df) 37 and significance level at 0.05 was 1.687. Based on the analysis above the alternative hypothesis of this research was accepted, because the t-counted value is greater than the t-table value (13.35>1.687). Thus, teaching speaking skills by using problem-solving method can significantly develop the students’ speaking skills.
