Objective of this research is to find out about the strategies of students in
learning speaking skill and the most strategy used by them. This is a descriptive
quantitative research because researcher wants to describe strategies used by the
students in learning speaking skill. The population was the grade IX students at
MTsN 2 Parigi and she used a convenient sampling technique to recruit the
participants as the sample. The researcher uses a google-form questionnaire as an
instrument to collect data. The result of study shows that all of the grade IX students
at MTsN 2 Parigi use direct and indirect strategies in learning speaking, such as
memory strategy, cognitive strategy, compensation strategy, metacognitive strategy,
affective strategy and social strategy. Additionally, most of them preferred to use a
memory strategy since they just learned and memorized the sentences in English by
imagining a situation where the sentence can be used, and a cognitive strategy by
imitating what teachers said with the correct pronunciation after they were taught the
lesson. This finding implies that in developing students’ speaking skill, teachers
should take into account the teaching of pronunciation skill.
