The researches use the speaking rubric in the pre-test and use the same rubric in the post-test for obtaining results. The results demonstrate an improvement within the four components of the rubric.

Finally, this research contains the Storytelling Method, which can be used in the classroom. It will provide theoretical concepts, methodology, data analysis, conclusions and recommendations for teachers when they apply the Storytelling Method as a useful tool in the classroom.
