INTRODUCTION
This

and definition of key terms.
1.1 Background
of the Problem
There
are many languages used as a means of communication by people all over the world.
One of them is English, which has a role as an international language. It is
known as the first foreign language taught in Indonesia. It is started from
Elementary School up to University, because it is important for developing the
science.
Many
students in Indonesia do not like English. They get difficulties, boredom and
confusing in learning it, because it is not their mother tongue. English
teacher should be able to motivate the learners in learning this foreign
language. Harmer (1993: 3) states motivation means a kind of drive that
encourages somebody to pursue a course action. It should be done by every
English teacher in order that the students are interested to learn this
language. English teacher must be able to manage the teaching by using certain
method in the teaching-learning process, so that the students will like it
without boring and despair.
Community
Language Learning Method (CLLM) as one kind of method in language learning,
“where the learners become members of a community – their fellow learners and
the teacher to learn through interaction with members of the community.
Learning is not viewed as an individual accomplishment but as something that is
achieved collaboratively. Learners are expected to listen attentively to the
knower, to feely provide meanings they wish to express, to repeat target
utterance without hesitation, to support fellow members of the community, to
report deep inner feelings and frustrations as well as joy and pleasure, and to
become counselors to other learners” ( Curan in Richard, at. all, 1986: 120)
In
learning English there are four skills which are necessary to be mastered by
the learners. Those skills are listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Referring to the title, the writer limits the explanation to the speaking only.
Speaking skill is very important skill that must be mastered by every language
learners, because one is called mastering a language when he/she is able to
demonstrate the speaking skill. In order to master this skill, a teacher as an
educator have to use good method in teaching learning process. In this case,
the researcher concerns with the effectiveness of CLLM toward students’
speaking ability an experimental for eight grade students of SMP Darul Hikmah
because so far CLLM has not been practiced in the field by most English
teachers.
1.2 Statement of
Problem

on the background of the study, the research problem can be formulated as
follows:
- To what extent is the achievement of the speaking ability an experimental for the eight grade students of SMP Darul Hikmahn Mataram in academic years 2011/2012?
