Abstract

Sari, Risa Dinda, 2024. The Use of Text-to-Speech Software in Natural Reader Application to Improve Students' Pronunciation (A Pre- Experimental Research At Grade 9B of SMP PGRI 1 Ajibarang in the Academic Year of 2023/2024). Thesis. Supervisor 1: Erna Wardani, S.Pd., M.Hum., Supevisor 2: Slamet Riyadi, S.S M.Pd., Chief External Examiner: Drs.

This research has aimed to improve students' pronunciation skills using Natural Reader Application. This research used a pre-experimental design with a quantitative approach involving 23 samples of students from SMP PGRI 1 Ajibarang. This research instruments were pre-test consisting of 11 words to pronounce and post-test consisting 10 words to pronounce. The results of this research showed that students' pronunciation skills after using Natural Reader Application improved up to 11.3% from the mean of pre-test score 36.2 to the mean of post-test score 77.3. Furthermore, the results of significance values was 0.002 < 0.05, it means that the students' pronunciation skills using Natural Reader Application significantly improved. It can be said that, the Alternative Hypothesis was accepted and the Null Hypothesis is rejected. The use of Natural Reader Application for students' pronunciation skills was fairly effective. It can be seen from the gain value calculation. The data obtained showed that the gain score was 0.58 from the mean pre-test score that was 36.2 and mean post-test score was 77.3, and it is included in the medium category of gain score was 0.7 > gain 0.3 .Based on the research result above, the use of Natural Reader Application improved students' pronunciation skills at Grade 9 of SMP PGRI 1 Ajibarang, and the use of Natural Reader Application fairly effective for students' pronunciation skills at Grade 9 of SMP PGRI 1 Ajibarang.
