The focus of this research was on enhancing students' speaking abilities through interactive activities. Various interactive activities, including picture description, card games, role-playing, and simulations with visual aids, were utilized in the research. The researcher performed a classroom action research consisting of three cycles with students from Universitas Tama Jagakarsa. The results indicated that interactive activities were effective in improving students' English-speaking skills, as they encouraged students to participate actively in the learning process. Based on the findings, it is recommended that facilitators employ interactive activity techniques in speaking classes and modify them to prevent students from becoming bored, anxious, or less motivated to participate. Teachers can also consider using interactive activities as an alternative approach to teaching English, particularly for speaking skills.
