ABSTRACT 

The objective of this research was to invest the effect of implementation of hypnoteaching 
toward eleventh grade to increase students’ speaking ability. The research was facused to 
know the significant effect of implementation hypnoteaching method at MA YASMI 
DURI. The population are 42 persons of eleventh grade that consists of two classes and the 
sample are 16 persons of IPA 1 Class. The research design was pre-experiment with pre-
test and post-test design. The are two variables, they are hypnoteaching method and 
speaking ability, and then to analyze the data obtained,the research used Paired sample T-
test. Based on the data analysis and its result, the writer knows that mean score of students 
in pre – test was 50.5 and mean score of students in post-test  was 67.25 and the result of 
paired sample T-test was Tvalue = 6,898, by df is 15. Based on the table of Tvalue, for df  
15, T-table significant 5%  is 2,13 and Ttable significant 1% is 2,95. The writer can make 
a conclusion that implementation of hypnoteaching method toward speaking ability is 
categorized in “Ha” level based on the experiment classroom, and there is significant 
effect of implementation of hypnoteaching method toward eleventh grade student  
speaking ability at IPA 1 class. the result indicate that there is significant effect difference 
on implementation hypnoteaching method, where post-test improvement score than the 
pre-test score. 
 

1. Introduction 

In this era, people demand to have more than one 

language. Language as a tool for communication takes an 

important role in our daily activities. Without 

communication, we will be left behind. Communication in 
foreign language is a bridge to get information, knowledge 

and culture, and as we know, english is international 

language. So, it is important to master english language. 

The fact shows that the result of teaching learning 

English is still low. Somantri in Syamsinar (2007) said that 

there can be a wonder about the condition of the student’s 

English ability. The students have learned English from the 

first-grade of junior high school until senior high school, 

but most of them still cannot use English as tool of 

communication. It does not only happen to the students 

who have score below five, but also to the students who 

have score over eight in junior high school cannot use 
English in real communication in their level. 

Besides, their receptive skills are also below the 

expectation. For example, the students who have graduated 

from senior high school, they still find difficulty in English 

(Balitbang Depdiknas, 2003). The indicators of the 

problems are as follow: the first problem is most the 

students feel not confidence when someone asked to use 

english, they can’t speak English and also their speaking 

ability is still low. For example: the teacher asked to the 

students, they average just answer yes or no. They do not 

want give the more complete answer. And the students have 
no spirit in run the learning process because they think 

about English is the difficult subject and the teacher can not 

realize the student that english is fun. 

Now, teachers really need especial notice in order to get 

the purpose hoped. Learning method used is an important 

factor influencing the teacher. A teacher is demanded to 

dominate some learning models in order to give appeal to 

the learners. And then, the next important one in learning 

process is an optimal or maximun learning achievement. 

So, it can produce a high quality of output. 

During this process of learning English, teachers are 
mainly still using the old paradigm where the teacher gives 

knowledge to students who passively. Teachers teach with 

conventional methods or traditional methods namely lecture 

method and expect students to sit, be quiet, listen, record 

and memorize. Freire (1970) gives a term to this learning 

method as “banking concept of education”. The 

implementation of education is merely considered as 

transfer of knowledge by the educators and the students are 

as passively receiver of knowledge. Thus, Teaching and 

Learning activities become monotonous and lack of 

students’ interest. These conditions will not improve 
student’s skills in understanding the English subjects. 

The conventional method slowly moves into learner-

centered method, the teacher is facilitator. Besides that, 

teacher also has the roles as motivator, controller, 

organizer, assessor, prompter, participant, resource, tutor, 

observer and inspirator. 

The teacher has role as motivator. Therefore, teacher 

should motivate the students if the teacher is teaching in the

classroom. In the classroom, the students have different IQ, 

EQ and SQ so the teacher must make classroom flexible. 

The teacher must motivate the students who don’t have 
encouragement to study English. Motivation determines the 

key success of teaching whether the students get 

understanding or not. Syaiful Bahri Djamarah in Rino 

Ardian (skripsi, 2008: 151) says that the success of teacher 

in teaching is the teacher who is clever to encourage the 

students in learning. 

If the teacher can choose the suitable method in run the 

learning process, the writer believes, there is no problem 

that would be found like the problem above. Its all depend 

on method that the teacher used.  

Hypnoteaching is another learning method being 

improved now. This learning method is able to emerge its 
own attractive for the learners. Hypnoteaching is 

combination of two words, hypnosis and teaching. 

Hypnosis means suggestion or giving suggestion and 

teaching means preaching or transferring knowledge. So, 

hypnoteaching can be comprehended as suggesting the 

students to be smart. Teaching by hypnosis method is the 

up to date method applied in teaching learning activity 

whether informal or formal learning. 

 

According to Novian (2010), “Hypnoteaching involves 

conscious and unconscious mind. Hypnoteaching learning 
method is learning method delivering lesson material by 

using unconscious languages to emerge suggestion for the 

students into full concentration about materials explained 

by the teachers because unconscious mind has a large 

dominant to the working process of our brain. So, the 

method can make the students can speak english better than 

before. Based on the explanation the speaking found some 

phenomena as follow : 

1. The student still get difficulties to learn english. 

2. The students’ motivation in speaking is still low. 

3. The students have no self confidence  in speaking. 

4. The teacher has not found the good method yet 
that suitable in speaking. 

Based on the phenomena above, the writer is interested 

to researching and discussing about “ THE EFFECT OF 

HIPNOTEACHING METHOD TO INCREASE 

STUDENTS’ SPEAKING ABILITY  AT THE  

ELEVENTH  GRADE  STUDENTS OF MA YASMI 

DURI”. 

Based on the background above, that can be seen that 

some of the student get problem in english subject 

especially in speaking. 

a. Why do many students still get difficulties in 
learning english especially in speaking? 

b. Why are many of the students’ motivation in 

speaking still low? 

c. Why do many of students have no self confidence 

in speaking? 

d. Why does the teacher  not use good method yet in 
teaching in speaking? 

e. Why are the students not interesting to learning 

english? 

f. Why are the students used to speaking their 

traditional language? 

g. Why are the students never try english language? 

 

With reference the problem limitation explained above, 

it can be formulated as follow : 

a. How is the students’ speaking ability before 

implementation hypnoteaching method ? 

b. How is the students’ speaking ability after 
implementation hypnoteaching method ? 

c. What is the significant effect after implementation 

hypnoteaching method ? 

2. Literature Review 

2.1 The Nature of Speaking 

According to brown ( 2004: 140) speaking is productive 

skill that can be directly and empirically observed, those 

observation are invariably colored by accuracy and 

effectiveness of a test taker listening skill, which 

necessarily compromises the rehabilitee and validity of and 

oral production test. 

Speaking is a productive in the oral mode. It’s like the 

other skill, is more complicated than it seems at first and 

involves more than just pronouncing words, it is thinking of 

what one wishes to say, choosing the words in the proper 

grammatical frame word. Communicating the feeling we 
have and so on. Speaking is producing movements of the 

rib cage, the vocal cards and the mount.  

Speaking is oral communication, which is used more by 

the people in their social community, speaking takes more 

important part compared to others, like reading, listening, 

or writing. Speaking is very crucial for people in sharing 

their ideas, opinion or felling others. The speaker tries hard 

to use the effective way to do speaking so that listener can 

what they mean. 

According to jhon M. Echols in Dewita (skripsi : 2011) 

speaking is one of the four language skill to tell the words 
that are doing communication. Speaking derives from the 

other word’ speak’in other hand, widdowson in tafsirudin 

(2010: 19) states that is active and productives skill. It mean 

that speaking is skill as a productive skill, productive skill 

allows students to produce word in english. It also show the 

students ability in mastering speaking skill.

Speaking is perhaps the most demanding skill for the 

teacher to teach. In their on languange children are able to 

express emotion, communicate intention and reaction, 
explore the languange and fun of it, so they expect to be 

able to do the same in english. Part of the magic of teaching 

young children a foreign language is just another way of 

expressing what they want to express, but there are 

limitations because of their lack of actual languange. 

2.1.1 Component of Speaking 

David P. Harris (1969: 81-82) states no language skill is 

so difficult to assess with precision as speakingability, and 

for this reason it seemed wise to defer our consideration 

oforal productiontests until last. Moreover, some of the 

problemsinvolved in the evaluation of speaking skill occur 

in other forms oflanguage testing. Like writing, speaking is 
a complex skill requiringthe simultaneous use of a number 

of different abilities which oftendevelop at different rates. 

Either five components are generallyrecognized in analyses 

of the speech process: 

1) Vocabulary 

Vocabulary is one of the extreme aspect that the support 

speaking in an important role in speaking skill. vocabulary 

is the total number of word which make up language. 

longman  (1987 : 4) states that vocabulary is a list of words 

used in alphabetical order and with explanation of their 

meaning. 

2) Pronunciation 

One of the most important aspects of speaking is effort 

to master the sound system in order to able to speak the 

languange well. The sound produced in unfamiliar way 

make one unable to understand what the speaker means.  

3) Grammar 

River in Rino Ardian (skripsi: 2011) believe that 

communication in speaking run smoothly if its grammar 

can be understood therefore. Speaker must be a ware on the 

grammar in the rule by which we put together meaning full 

and of part of words of a languange to communicate 

massages that are comprehensible. 

4) fluency 

speaking is an activity of reproducing word orally, it 

means that there is a process of exchanging ideas between a 

speaker and listener. Therefore, it’s important to have 

fluency as having the capability of other component of 

speaking. 

long man (1978 :424) states that fluency is the quality or 

condition of being fluent. It indicates since student 

understood each other. In speaking means, that they have 

been fluent, fluency is the ability to use languange span tare 

lousily and confidently and without undue pauses and 
hesitations. 

2.1.2 Element of Speaking 

Jeremy Harmer( 2002, p. 269) statemany students have 

difficulties in speaking. They are manyelements of 

speaking that must be mastered by students in order to be 
agood speaker: 

1) Connected speech 

Effective speakers of English need to be ablenot only to 

produce the individual phonemes of English, but also touse 

fluent connected speech. In connected speech sounds 

aremodified, omitted, added, or weakened. It is for this 

reason that weshould involve students in activities designed 

specifically toimprove their connected speech. 

2) Expressive devices 

Native of English change the pitch and stress 

ofparticular parts of utterances, vary volume and speed, and 

show byother physical and non verbal means how they are 
feeling. The useof these devices contributes to the ability to 

convey meaning. Theyallow the extra expressions of 

emotion and intensity, studentsshould be able to deploy at 

least some of such supra segmental features and devices in 

the same way if they are to be fullyeffective 

communicators. 

3) Lexis and grammar 

Spontaneous speech is marked by the use ofnumber of 

common lexical phrases, especially in their performanceof 

certain language function. Teachers should therefore 

supplyvariety of phrases for different functions, such as: 
greeting,agreeing and disagreeing. 

4) Negotiation language 

Effective speaking benefits from thenegotiatory 

language we use to seek clarification and to show 

thestructure of what we are saying.15 We often need ask 

forclarification when we are listening to someone else talk. 

2.2 Concept of Method 

2.2.1 Understanding of Hypnoteaching 

  Hypnoteaching a learning method in presenting the 
material, teachers wear subconscious languages that can 

foster its own interest to students . 

From the origin of the word, hypnoteaching is a 

combination of two words, namely hypnosis and teaching. 

Hypnosis means giving sugestion and teaching means 

teaching. Thus, it can be interpreted that hypnoteaching is 

an attempt to hypnosis or giving sugestion students to 

become better and increase performance. Hypnoteaching 

can be said to be improvised from a learning method. This 

method of trying to come and provide a new conceptual 

approach in the field of education and training. Note that 

hypnoteaching berin only at the level of subconscious mind 
subconscious. A natural God-given strength hello to every 

human being. Through mastery hypnoteaching, teachers 

will be able to understand the pattern of the actual workings 

of the brain .

According Novian Triwidia Jaya (2010 : 41 ) in yustisia 

(2012 : 76) define hypnoteaching is a blend of learning 

which involves the conscious and unconscious mind. 
Hypnoteaching a creative learning methods, unique and 

imaginative. Prior to the implementation of learning the 

students are already in conditioning your child to learn. 

Thus, the students already be conditioned fresh and ready to 

accept the subject matter. To prepare for these things, of 

course the teachers themselves are also required to be stable 

both psychologically as well as psychologically . By doing 

so, teachers also have full readiness to teach children. 

Meanwhile, according to Muhammad Noer (2010 : 21 ) 

in yustisia (2012 : 76) define in hypnoteaching teachers act 

as hypnotists, while acting as suyet didk child or the person 

being hypnotized. In lessons, the teacher actually do not 
have to euthanize his protege when giving suggestions. 

Teachers simply use persuasive language as communication 

tool in accordance with the expectations of the students. 

Ahrus thing to remember is the teacher must try to convey 

to the students with the language that has been understood 

by the students. Therefore, it is highly unlikely hypnosis is 

being run effectively if suyet not understand the intent of a 

hypnotist.  

The elements that need to be known in the following 

hypnoteaching ( Noer , 2010: 137 ). 

1) Appearance teachers 

 The first step that must be done by the teacher in 

the success of learning through hypnoteaching method is to 

pay attention to her appearance in advance. Has become a 

liability for a teacher to always look neat. Therefore, the 

appearance of good will make confidence is high. In 

addition, an attractive appearance also can be a powerful 

magnet for students. 

2)  commiseration 

A teacher must have a high sympathy to their students 

so that the students would be sympathetic to him anyway. 

Therefore, the natural law is certainly applicable rules of 

reciprocity. If teachers treat their students well, his protege 
was definitely going to be nice to her. Although the 

students are very naughty, he would still feel reluctant and 

respectful to teachers who also respected. 

3) Empathetic attitude 

A teacher should have a sense of empathy and sympathy 

are high for their students. With empathy, the teacher will 

always try to help their students who are feeling difficulties. 

In addition, he also has a strong determination to develop 

and advance their students. Teachers who have high 

empathy, would not stay silent when encountered protege 

like crowded, behaved strangely, like bullying, and various 
other unfavorable actions. The teachers also do not just give 

prediket "bad boy" to the students, but find out in advance 

the background that many of these children misbehave and 

try to find a solution. 

4)  The use of language 

Oral language is a reflection of the language of the 

heart. Therefore, out of a verbal person, will symbolize the 
hearts and feelings of the person. Similarly with the teacher. 

A good teacher should have a good vocabulary and 

language and manners. Moreover, it should also not easily 

provoked anger, always respectful to others, including his 

protégé, not condescending, mocking, or marginalizing 

students with a variety of words that are not supposed to get 

out of his verbal. 

Said teachers who have good language and manners, 

undoubtedly their students would not dare mengatkan - 

phrases that could hurt her. In addition, students are guided 

and advised by the language of the heart by the teachers 

will also be obedient and obey it with all my heart. 

5) The motivation of the students with a story or tale 

  Provide motivation through the story or 

the story is one of the factors of success in the use of 

methods hypnoteaching. The character of the basic 

character workings of the mind is imagination and fantasy. 

While the story or the story is a study of the imagination. 

Thus, it would be much better if the teacher gives a story or 

stories of other people that fit the theme class. When 

teachers find their students are facing problems, not 

excited, or experiencing other problems, teachers can 

advise and guide students through the story without making 
students feel patronized. 

6) Viewer ( for the kinesthetic ) 

One of the elements of hypnosis in learning is visual or 

issue of self-expression. While I was teaching, teachers 

should strive to use good body language style so that what 

it conveys becomes more impressive for their students. 

However, to be able to use the style of good body language, 

teachers must master the material to be conveyed in 

advance. For teachers who do not master the material, 

usually will teaching style uninteresting and boring . 

7) If you want to master the minds of the students , 

first mastered their heart 

Learning through experience in the field will be more 

striking than learning theory class subject matter alone. One 

way to the hearts of the students, for example by creating a 

fun learning process, doing games, and so on. 

2.2.2 Benefits of Hypnoteaching 

Nowadays, we often see a lot of schools are feeling 

overwhelmed and difficulty in dealing with the various 

problems faced by the children of his protege. Starting from 

the "small", like lazy to learn, do not get excited in the 

learning process, have a lower educational achievement, to 

the penyipangan behavior of a "large" performed by the 
students. Even some of the irregularities that included the 

delinquency and criminal activity.

85 

On the other hand, the school, especially the teachers 

are also not able to provide the right solution and thoughtful 

to those events. Usually, they are giving advice or 
punishment to students with problems. When it is 

considered unreasonable, the school took the decision to 

pull out of the students. In addition, it is often found in the 

classroom is a learning environment that is less "alive" and 

seem boring. The students find it difficult to enjoy the 

learning process effective and fun into a very difficult thing 

to achieve. 

From the foregoing, it can be seen that the method 

hypnoteaching played only the power of the subconscious 

mind. Hypnoteaching through the mastery of teaching, 

teachers will become better understand work patterns 

protégé actual mind. In other words, we can understand that 
hypnoteaching is the development of the learning methods. 

Through hypnoteaching, teachers can make the new 

conceptual approach towards their students. In addition, this 

method also provides "therapeutic penyempuhan" on 

students who have learning and psychological problems. 

As for some of the benefits that can be achieved through 

the application of learning methods in the classroom 

hypnoteaching as follows : 

1) Learning becomes fun and more exciting, both for 

the students, as well as for teachers. 

2) Learning can attract the attention of students 
through a variety of creative games that are applied by the 

teacher. 

3) Teachers become better able to manage his 

emotions. 

4) Learning to foster a harmonious relationship 

between teachers and students. 

5) Teachers can cope with children who have 

difficulty learning through personal approach. 

6) Teachers can cultivate the spirit of the students in 

learning through games hypnoteaching. 

7) The teacher helped the students in eliminating 

habits - bad habits they have. 

2.2.3 Advantages and Disadvantages of Hypnoteaching 

According Yustisia (2012 : 81) In essence, 

hypnoteaching a isaha how a teacher can hypnotize the 

learners in order to feel happy and always eager to absorb 

the lessons from it. Through ways and certain tricks, 

teachers can make the brain condition of learners still feel 

enthusiastic and excited during learning. In addition, this 

method also can make children become easier to remember 

and master the material being studied. In other words, 

through methods hypnoteaching children can maximize its 

ability to exceed the usual conditions. 

The implementation of the method hypnoteaching itself 

should be directed to positive goals that build. Teachers can 

do this by incorporating suggestions into the subconscious 

of learners. In doing so, of course, the teacher should feel 

reassured and confident that he could do with a good 
method. In addition, confidence and self-esteem are also the 

main attraction for students. The advantages possessed by 

hypnoteaching method as follows: 

1) Learners can develop in accordance with the 

interests and potentials. 

2) Teachers can create diverse learning process so it 

is not boring for the learners. 

3) The learning process will lebi dynamic. 

4) Created a good interaction between teachers and 

learners. 

5) The material presented is able to focus learners. 

6) The material is easy to master learners so that they 
are more motivated to learn. 

7) There are many skills during the process of 

learning. 

8) The process of learning is active. 

9) Learners can imagine and think more creatively. 

10) Due to not memorize the absorption capacity of 

the learners will be faster and last longer. 

11) Monitoring of the teachers will be learners become 

more intensive. 

12)  Due to the learning atmosphere relaxed and 

menyanangkan, it mebuat learners feel happy and excited 
when the following study. 

A method of learning, certainly is not perfect and has 

flaws. Thus, the teacher should be make combine learning 

methods with one another. All it aims to achieve the goal of 

education is expected. 

As for the shortage of learning methods hypnoteaching 

as follows: 

a) The number of learners who are in a class, 

resulting in teachers find it difficult to give attention to 

individual learners' children. 

b) Teachers need to learn and practice to implement 

the method hypnoteaching. 

c) Method hypnoteaching still part of a new method 

and has not been widely used by teachers in Indonesia. 

d) The lack of facilities and infrastructure in schools 

that could support the implementation of learning methods 

hypnoteaching. 

Judging from shortcomings - shortcomings above, it 

appears that the teacher's role is very big when it would 

apply the learning method hypnoteaching. Therefore, 

teachers are also obliged to many- lot to learn and practice 



ELSYA: Journal of English Language Studies

86 

in order to master this method and may apply to children 

with a good class. In addition, teachers also need to 

incorporate methods hypnoteaching with the method of 
discussion and administration tasks. 

2.3 Procedure of Teaching Speaking by 
Hypnoteaching Method 

According Ibnu Hajar ( 2011: 100) In doing hypnoteaching, 

only treated steps - simple steps. Here is the basic steps that 

must be done in order to master the moves become master 

teachers hypnoteaching : 

2.3.1 Intention and motivation within yourself 

A person's success depends on the intention in her to 

struggle and work hard to achieve that success. Therefore, a 

strong will will bring high motivation and commitment for 

concern and survive in the occupied areas. 

2.3.2 Pacing 

Pacing means to equate the position, gestures, language, 

and brain waves with other people or students. Because, in 

principle or humans tend to prefer interacting with friends 

who have a lot in common, so that he will feel comfortable. 

With similarities derived from a common brain waves here, 
then every message delivered from one person to another 

can be accepted and understood. 

This also applies in the application of teaching methods 

hypnoteaching. That is, if the students hate lessons given by 

teachers, meaning brain waves is not equivalent to their 

teachers. Although much older than them. However, brain 

waves can actually be supplied with as if they do or think 

like them. 

As for some way of doing fishing on students in learning 

activities are as follows: 

1) Imagine our age equivalent to students, so that we can 

carry out activities in feeling things that are experienced by 
them at this time, not when we were in school first. 

2) Use appropriate language to the language that is often 

used by students. If necessary, use slang trending among 

them. 

3) Perform the movement - the movement and facial 

expression that matches the theme of language. 

4) Make relation theme of our lesson with friends that is 

the trend among students. 

5) Always update the knowledge of friends, language, until 

the latest gossip is the trend among students. 

by doing these things, then without conscious thought 
waves we have been cooperating with the students, so that 

they feel comfortable to meet with us. If this has happened, 

then be prepared to do step - the next step. 

2.3.3 Leading 

Leading has a sense lead or teach something. This is done 

after the process of pacing do. If we do leading without 

preceded by pacing, then it is tantamount to giving orders to 
the students are quite risky, because they do so reluctantly 

and under pressure. This will result in their denial to 

teachers. 

After doing the pacing, the students will feel comfortable 

with the teacher. At that moment almost every whatever the 

teacher said or assign to them, will be performed 

voluntarily and happily. So difficult as any material, their 

subconscious mind will catch the subject matter easily. 

They also will not find difficulty in doing the exam, 

although the exam was difficult. 

2.3.4 Use the Positive Words 

The fourth step is supporting measures in performing 
pacing and leading. This positive use of the word according 

to the workings of the subconscious mind is not willing to 

accept a negative word. Basically, the word - the word 

given by the teacher, either directly or indirectly, affect 

psychic students, so that they feel more in receiving the 

material provided.  

These words can be either an invitation and encouragement. 

So, apaila there are things that should not be done by them, 

should use the pronoun positive to replace the word - a 

negative word. For example, if it will calm a noisy 

classroom, usually said command is issued, "be quiet" in 
applying hypnoteaching, it should be  said to be quiet was 

replaced with, "quiet please". 

2.3.5 Give Praise to the Student 

praise is one way to establish a person's self-concept. 

Therefore, give praise to the students sincerely, so that they 

will be compelled to do more than ever before. Giving 

praise can be done when students managed to do or 

achieve. Give praise slightest form of achievements, 

including when he managed to make positive changes in 

himself. Although possibly, still under a friend - a friend, it 

could still give praise. 

In giving praise, avoid all negative connecting words, such 
as "but", "however", "just that", and so forth. The use of the 

word - the word will make us praise it - it and poke - fun, as 

in the words, "Adi, you're a smart boy, mother / father 

delighted to have students like you. But, unfortunately, you 

lack attention to neatness of clothes ". 

If compliment coupled with criticism or suggestions, then 

the more caught is a form of assault on the dignity of 

people who praised instead of increasing self-esteem, this 

will only drop. Although it should seem sepela and often, 

but the effect is very great in his psychological system. 

How to avoid negative conjunctive is by eliminating the 
conjunctive. For example, "you actually are students who 

are good and very proud. Will be proud again if more 

attention to neatness of appearance ". In the words of the 

protective shield of self-esteem has not had time to get out,

although there have been improvements message (criticism) 

into the subconscious program. 

2.3.6 Modeling 

Modeling is the process of giving the model or example 

through speech and behavior that is consistent and is one of 

the keys to success in hypnoteaching. After students feel 

comfortable with the teacher, then he needs to solidify his 

behavior to be consistent with the words and teachings, so 

he always keeps a trusted figure.

2.5 Operational Concepts 

Operational concept is the concept used to more 

explanation about theoretical framework to avoid 

misunderstanding of this  research. The operational 

concepts in this research are : 

1. Speaking is the vocal sound that out from the mouth, 

it’s all occure by the combination of vocabulary in the rule 

based on grammar. To make pronunciation has meaning to 

the listener. 

2. Hypnoteaching method is a kind of method that use 

unconscious languange. It  is useful to make the students 
become fun in run the learning process. Because the 

students never feel nerveous to face the teacher. Indicator 

of the implementation of hypnoteaching method as follow : 

a) The student can improve their speaking ability. 

b) The student be self-confidence in speaking.  

c) The teacher can using good method in learning process. 

2.6 The Assumption and Hypothesis 

2.6.1 The Assumption 

The writer assumes that the students in experimental class 
have different result whit the other class at the eleventh 

grade. The students who are taught by using hypnoteaching 

method will increase their speaking ability than the student 

who are not using the method. 

2.6.2 The Hypothesis 

Ha : there is a significant effect on implementation of 

hypnoteaching method toward the students’ speaking 

ability at MA YASMI Duri. 

Ho : there is no a significant effect on implementation of 

hypnoteaching method toward the students’ speaking 

ability at MA YASMI Duri. 

3. Method 

3.1 Research Design 

This chapter describes about the method and procedurs 

of the research. The writer designs this research is 

quantitatively in form of pre-experiment design.  It 

concludes about the location and time, the subject and the 

object, the population and sample, technique of collecting 

data and the analysis of data. This is a quantitative research 

variables in this research is two variable those are the 

hypnoteaching method and the speaking ability. The 
following schema will show the research design. 

3.2 The Time and Location of the Research 

This research was conducted at the second year students 

of MA YASMI DURI. It is located at Jl.Jendral Sudirman. 

Time of research was started on Februari until Juni 2016. 

3.3 The Subject and Object of the Reseach 

The subject of this research is the eleventh grade 
students of MA YASMI DURI and the object of this 

research is increasing  students’ speaking ability through 

hypnoteaching method. 

3.4 The Population and Sample 

The population of this research is the eleventh grade 

students of MA YASMI DURI. There are two classes but 

the writer only took one class as the sample. It is  XI IPA 1 

as the treatment class.  Class XI IPA 1 as the treatment 

class consists of 16 students.  

According to Widiyanto states, “ the sample of research 

is part of the population that will be researched and 

considered have represent of population”. ( Widiyanto : 

2010 ). 

Table 2. Population and Sample 

Class Population Sample 

IPA 1 16 Persons 16 Persons 

IPA 2 26 Persons - 

Total 42 Persons 16 persons 

 

 Because the writer ever teachs in the IPA 2 Class 

when did PPL, so the writer chose IPA 1 class and took 16 

students as the sample.

3.5 The Technique of Data Collecting and 
Analyzing 

In collecting the data, the writer used the following 

technique: 

3.5.1 Pre test 

Pre test is administered before treatment is given to 

know how far the students speaking ability especially for 

the material was taught by the writer in this research: 

greeting and expressing before the teaching learning 

process. The test consists of oral test. In oral presentation, 
students’ vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and fluency 

in english was tested. 

The writer said a word and have a student to guess what 

sequence of symbols comprised the word. But before that, 

at the beginning of the stage, the writer will model the 

appropriate sound after pointing a symbol on the chart. 

In measuring the students speaking ability    (accuracy 

of pronunciation, comprehension, fluency, vocabulary, 

grammar). The writer will use speaking rubrics by Brown 

(2004 : 172), as follows : 

Table 3. Speaking Rubrics 

Categories Score The Criteria of Speaking 

Pronunciation 5 The students can pronounce 

the words very well 

 4 The students can pronounce 

the word well 

 3 The students can pronounce 

the word adequate enough 

 2 The students can pronounce 
the word frequently 

unintelligible 

 1 The students can pronounce 

the word poorty 

Comprehension 5 The students comprehend the 
dialogue well and content is 

clear 

 4 The students comprehend the 

dialogue in all although there 

is repeating in certain part.  

 3 The students  comprehend the 

dialogue but there are some 
repetations 

 2 The students comprehend the 

dialogue but difficult to reply 

what their friend said. 

 1 The students do comprehend 

although in simple dialogue 

Fluency 5 The students are able to 

continue speech without too 
much hesitation 

 4 The students fluency are 

having a little disruption by 

language problem 

 3 The students make a lot of 

mistake in language problem 

 2 The students often doubt and 

stop becouse oflimited 

language 

 1 The students often break off 

and stop while conveying 

dialogue 

Vocabulary 5 The students have board 

vocabulary 

 4 The students have  adequate 

vocabulary 

 3 The students have good 

enough vocabulary 

 2 The students have limited 

vocabulary 

 1 The students have very limited 

vocabulary 

Grammar 5 The students have very good 

grammar 

 4 The students’ error in 

grammar is quite rare 

 3 The students’ grammar are 

good enough, able to speak 
the language with sufficient 

structural 

 2 The students contruction of 

grammar is quite accurately 

but does not have through or 

confidence control 

  1 The students  error is frequent 

but the content still 
understood 

 

The writer was objectively give a score based on the 

characteristic of each students’ speaking ability, whether 

they get 1,2,3,4, or 5 score. The maximum score that was 

reached by the students is 25. However, the students score 

obtained was calculated by the following formula : 

 

The data from the classroom observation used the 

category according Hartono in Agusriwal (2012:41) as 
follows :

80 – 89 Good 

70 – 79 Fairly Good 

60 – 69 Fair 

0 – 59 Poor 

(Nana Sudjana, 2005: 118) 

3.5.2 Post-test 

After giving the treatments, the writer gave the post-test 

to the subjects; the next type of the post-test is also in the 

form of oral production test. The test was administered to 

investigate whether the hypnoteaching method can increase 

the student’s speaking ability. 

3.5.3 Documentation 

According to Arikunto the method of documentation is 

seeking data such as notes, transcripts, books, newspapers, 

magazines, inscriptions, minutes of meetings, logger, 
agenda and etc (2010:274). Documents used the writer here 

in the form of photos and record data on result experiment 

research. 

3.6 Data Analysis Technique 

3.6.1 Descriptive Statistic 

central tendency, the central tendency of a distribution 

is an  estimate of the “center” of a distribution of values. 

There are three major types of estimate of central 

tendency : 

1) Mean, average is probably the most of commonly 
used method of describing tendency. The formula 

is : 

M = 
  

 
  

Where : 

M   = the mean of score 

∑x = the summation of all individual score 

N   = Total number of data 

2) Median, the score found at the exact middle of the 
set of values. The formula is : 

Me = ((n+1))/2    

Where : 

n : total number of data 

3) Mode, is the most of frequently occuring value in 
the set of scores. The formulation of mode is: 

 

Where: 

L  = is the lower class limit of the modal class 

f1 =  is the frequency of the modal class 

f0  = is the frequency of the class before the modal 
class in the frequency table 

f2 =  is the frequency of the class after the modal 

class in the frequency table 

h = is the class interval of the modal class 

 

Measure of dispersion, it refers to the spread of the 

values around the central tendency. 

1) Range ; simply the highest value minus the lowest 

value. The formula is : 

J = Xmax – Xmin  

1) Variance ; used as a measure of how far a set of 
numbers are spared out from each other. The 
formula is : 

SD
2  

= 
 (     ) 

   
 

2) Standard deviation is a measure of the spread of 
the most widely used. 

The formula of standard deviation : 

SDx = √
   

 
  for experiment class 

SDy = √
   

 
  for control class 

To get the different from mean of pre-test and mean 

post-test with T-test, the writer used formula. According 

Hartono (2004 : 171) as follow : 

   
     

√(
   

√   
)
 

 (
   

√   
)
 

 

Where : 

 to = The value of t-obtained 

 Mx = Mean score of experiment class 

 My = Mean score of control class 

 SDx = Standard deviation of experiment 

 SDy = Standard deviation of control class 

 N = Number of student 

It is necessary to obtain the degree of freedom (df) in 

order to get the t-table. The formula of degree of freedom 

is : 

 df = n-1 

where :

90 

 df = the degree of freedom 

 n = number of the students 

To found central tendency (mean, median, mode and 
sum) and dispersion (standart deviation, variance, range, 

minimum, maximum, and minimum ) score, the writer use 

SPSS version 18 by (Jonathan Sarwono, 2002, p.114 ).  

a. Inferential Statistic 

Inferential statistic is testing the hypothesis on average 

used to determine whether the allegations of research are 

appropriate or not. 

In testing of inferential statistics, the writer uses SPSS 

program. In the SPSS program, technique of testing the 

inferential statistics is used the paired sample T-Test.  

. In the SPSS program, technique of testing the 

Inferential Statistics is used the paired Sample T-Test. The 
formula of paired sample t-test is: 

t = 
  

√
  (    ) (  ) 

   

 

where : 

t   = t-test 

d  =difference between matched scores 

N   = number of pairs of scores 

4. Results 

In this chapter, the researcher prepared the data analysis 
of the students in the test. The result shown that the 

implementation of hypnoteaching method is significant or 

not to be used to increase the students speaking skill of the 

eleventh grade students of MA Yasmi Duri. In analyzing 

the data, the writer used the SPSS statistic to make easy in 

determining the mean score, median, total score, range, 

standard deviation, variance. All data was used to know the 

the significant of hypnoteaching method.

4.2 Inferential Statistic 

This analysis is used to known the relationship and how 

much of it between two variables. In this analysis, the 

writer used three steps as follows : 

Table 7. Normality Test 

  

Kolmogorov-Smirnova 

Statistic df Sig. 

pretest .147 16 .200* 

posttest .164 16 .200*

posttest .942 16 .380 

a. Lilliefors Significance Correction 

 *. This is a lower bound of the true significance. 

 

To determine the data normality based on liliefors is if 

the significant value ( Kolmogrorov-Smirnova ) is more 

than 0.05. So, the data distribution is normal. And  if the 

significant value is lower than 0.05. so, the data distribution 

is not normal. If the data distribution is normal. So, to 

determine the relationship between variables. It is used 

Paired Sample T-test and if the data distribution is not 

normal. So, the writer used Wilcoxon test. 

From the table above, it shows the signinificant of the 
test in pre-test is 0.200 and the post-test is 0.200. It means 

that the data distribution is normal.

From the table above, it is acquired the Tcount= 6,898, by 

df is 15. Based on the table of Tcount, for df  15, Ttable 
significant 5%  is 2,13 and Ttable significant 1% is 2,95.  

By compared the value of Tcount and Ttable well in value 

5%  and 1%.,  it can be known that Tcount is higher than 

Ttable .So Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted, it means there is 
a significant effect between pre-test and post-test on 

implementation hypnoteaching method. 

a. Eta-Squared 

To know the total of effect, the writer must count the 

data by manual. And the formula of eta-squared is : 

  ∑ = 
  

    (   )
 

Where : 

  ∑ = Eta-squared 

  T = The score of tcount 

  N = The total of sample 

 

  ∑ = 
     

       (    )
 

     = 
       

            
 

= 0.7598 

= 75,98 %  

= 76 % 

The category of eta-squared 0.01 – 0.05 is small, 0.06 – 

0.13 is medium and 0.14 – 1.00 is large (Cohen : 1998).  

Based on the category above, it can be known that the 

category of eta-squared is large. It means that the 

hypnoteaching method has the large significant effect 

toward students’ speaaking ability (76%) and 34% is 
determined by other factors.  

Summary 

1. Pre-test 

Based on the result of students’ test and descriptive 

analysis, it can be known that the mean score is 50.5, 

minimum score is 32 and maximum score is 84. 

2. Post-test 

Based on the result of students’ test and descriptive 

analysis, it can be known that the mean score is 67.25, 

minimum score 32 and maximum score 96. 

3. Significant effect  

a. Normality Test : Based on inferential 
analysis by using Normality test, it is 

shown that the signinificant of the test in 

pre-test is 0.200 and the post-test is 0.200. 

It means that the data distribution is 

normal.

b. Paierd Sample T-test : based on 
inferential analysis by using Paired 

Sample T-test, it is shown that Tcount is 
higher than Ttable ( 2.13 < 6.898 >2.95 ). It 

means that there is a significant effect on 

implementation hypnoteaching method 

toward students’ speaking ability. 

c. Eta-squared : based on the inferential 
analysis, it is shown that the score is 

0.7598 and it is include in category of 

eta-squared is large. It means that the 

hypnoteaching method has the large 

significant effect toward students’ 

speaking ability (76%) and 34% is 

determined by other factors.  

5. Discussion 

This research is relevant with Dewita (2011), a student 

from english department of Sekolah Tinggi Agama Islam 

(STAI) Duri. She researched about “ the contribution of 

communicative languange teaching method to increase the 

student’s speaking ability at the second year of SMP Negeri 
8 Duri of District of Mandau”. The population of her 

research is the second year of SMP Negeri 8 Duri of 

District of Mandau. The samples are 58 persons with 

devided into two classes, experimental and control class. 

This research used techniques of collecting data is 

observation and test analysis and result, the researcher can 

make a conclution that the contribution of communicative 

languange teaching method is categorized in “enaugh” 

level, based on recapitulation of it in the class room was 

61%, and there is the significant contribution of 

communicative languange teaching to increase the student’s 

speaking ability at the second years students of SMP N 8 
Duri District of Mandau. It means that alternative 

hypothesis (Ha) is “accepted”. The result of the test is 2.66, 

it is higher than the score compared with the value on t-

table. Based on the observation sheets show the student’s 

score of speaking test was increase after they are taught by 

communicative languange teaching method. 

 

 

6. Conclusion 

Based on the data presentation and analysis, the writer 

found that the mean score in pre-test is 50.5 And The post-

test is 67.25. based on the data above, it can be known that 

there is a different between pre-test and post-test. 

based on inferential analysis by using Paired Sample T-

test, it is shown that Tcount is higher than Ttable ( 2.13 < 

6.898 >2.95 ). It means that there is a significant effect on 

implementation hypnoteaching method toward students’ 

speaking ability. In Eta-squared shown that the score is 
0.7598 and it is include in category of eta-squared is large. 

It means that the hypnoteaching method has the large 

significant effect toward students’ speaking ability (76%) at 

the eleventh grade students of MA YASMI DURI and 34% 

is determined by other factors.
