Abstract
ABSTRACT This study aims to investigate vocational high school students’ perceptions of the Talking Stick technique in learning English speaking skills and to identify common problems faced by students in speaking. Employing a quantitative survey design, the research involved 25 tenth-grade Hospitality Department students at SMKN 4 Banjarmasin who had participated in speaking lessons using the Talking Stick technique. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire covering four indicators: students’ interest, speaking interaction, speaking confidence, and improvement of speaking skills. The findings revealed that students’ perceptions of the Talking Stick technique were generally in the Neutral category across all indicators, with overall mean scores below 3.41. Common problems identified included lack of implementation variation, persistent speaking anxiety, limited language readiness, fear of making mistakes, and low self-confidence. The study recommends integrating the Talking Stick technique with other interactive methods, such as audiovisual media or workplace simulations, to enhance its effectiveness in vocational school contexts. Keywords: student perceptions, speaking skills, Talking Stick, English language learning, vocational high school
