Designed used in this study was true experimental research conducted with one experimental group taught present continuous tense using multiple-slot substitution drill and control group without multiple-slot substitution drill. To collect the data, the researcher used speaking post-test in oral test form. In analyzing the data, the researcher used IBM spss statistic versions. 20 application of independent sample t.test to know the differences between experimental and control groups.
