Abstract
This Experimental Research was conducted to find out whether the reinforcement given by the teacher while teaching speaking can improve the students’ speaking ability or not. The population of the research were the tenth grade students of SMAN 7 Bengkulu. Based on simple random sampling technique, X MIPA 1 was taken as the sample and became the experimental group.

After doing 6 times of treatment on Experimental Group, the result indicated that the reinforcement affected students speaking ability significantly. In other words, the reinforcement given by the teacher could improve the students’ speaking ability.
