In learning English, there are four skills that should be mastered. The most important skill from those skills is speaking. Because speaking can be a judgment for our self.  The speaking skills of English for SMK students is emphasized by our government (Dikmenjur, 2007: 38). The government want to make the students of SMK be Smart, Competitive and Ready to Work. In this case, the government hopes to make the alumnus of SMK will be good competitors in the job field. The students’ English will be their strength for that competition. Beside, the speaking ability of the tenth grade students of SMK N 1 Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 still poor.

This research is purposed to know there any significant differences of the speaking ability of the tenth grade students of SMK N 1 Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 before and after being taught by using Simulation Technique or not.

This research included as experimental quantitative research. The data gotten by the oral test by the students in pre-test and post-test before and after being taught by using Simulation Technique. The sample of this research is 36 students of X Accounting 1 class that gotten by random sampling as the technique of sampling from the Accounting class in the first grade. 

The result of the speaking scores that gotten by the students from their pre-test shown that the highest score was 68 and the lowest score was 52 with Mean of score 59.08 and Standard Deviation 4.92. It can be concluded that the speaking ability of the tenth grade students of SMK N 1 Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 before taught by using Simulation Technique categorized as Poor. While, the speaking scores of the students after taught by using simulation technique shown that the highest score was 88 and the lowest score was 60 with the Mean of score 7.64 and Standard Deviation 7.70. It can be concluded that the speaking ability of the tenth grade students of SMK N 1 Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 after taught by using Simulation Technique categorized as Sufficient.

From the data above, it can be calculated that t-observation is 12.36 and the value of t values under the 5% column was 2.04. It shown that there is a significant difference between the speaking ability of the tenth grade students of SMK N 1 Kudus in the academic year 2013/2014 before and after being taught by using Simulation Technique.
