The intent of this study is to examine the students’ speaking ability by using Quantum Teaching Model at the eighth grade students at SMP PGRI 10 Bandung. Based on the pre-observation when doing teaching practice in research site, nearly 30 of the 40 students still can not speak and pronounce English well. There are several factors that contributed the student can not speak English well. First, the lack of students’ interest in learning. This factor is influenced by English teachers who are unfriendly and give less motivation to teach their students. Second, the lack of learning facilities, because in each classroom there are none of the learning equipment to assist students to learn English. Third, the use of the method is still less variation. This condition makes the students saturated and boring to learn. The effect is the students' interest to learn English decreasing and influent to the students’ results of speaking skill.
