There were two raters to score students’ speaking performance. The result shows that there is significant difference of students’ speaking ability after being taught through problem solving. It means that problem solving can increase students speaking ability. The result of students’ mean score pre-test 1 is 62.3 up in post-test 1 is 71(gain is 8.7), pre-test 2 is 63.1 up in post-test 2 is 73.4 (gain is 10.3) ,and pre-test 3 is 64.2 up in post-test 3 is 76.8 (gain is 12.6).

The result is 1st pair 26.187 (t-value) > 2. 048 (t-table) , 2nd pair 22.079 (t-value) > 2. 048 (t-table), 3rd pair 43.847 (t-value) > 2. 048 (t-table) means that there are significant differences of students’ speaking ability after being taught through problem solving. Therefore, the first hypothesis is accepted. Regarding the three topics given are; Friend, Family, and Holiday.
