The strategies used were Task Completion (50%), Opinion Sharing (83.3%), Information Transfer (16.6%), Reasoning Gap (33.3%), Questioning (100%), Brainstorming (33.3%), Scaffolding (100%), and Drilling (66.6%). Meanwhile, the other four speaking strategies were not used such as Information Gap, Jigsaw, Information Gathering, and Role Play. For the implementation, the teachers gave explanation and instruction to the students before applying the strategy.
