Pronunciation is the basis for conveying messages in language and one of the most important language components that must be taught to students in English learning process as a foreign language. In the school, if students do not have good pronunciation, students tend to be passive and unable to communicate well. So, in this technology era, the teacher can use interesting and interactive media in teaching pronunciation such as Memrise application that helpful the English learning process to be more effective and fun for the students.
This research relates to the use of the Memrise application in improving students' pronunciation ability. The purpose of this study was to find out whether there were significant differences in students' pronunciation ability between students who were taught using the Memrise application and students who were not taught using the Memrise application at the eighth grade of MTs Ma’arif Al-Ishlah Bungkal.
This research used quantitative research method, with a quasi-experimental research type. Data collection instruments used were tests and documentation. The test instruments used were pre-test and post-test to measure students' pronunciation ability. The population of this research were class VIII students of MTs Ma'arif Al-Ishlah Bungkal in academic year 2022/2023. The researcher used purposive sampling by taking class VIII A and VIII B as samples. Class VIII A consisted of 27 students as control class and class VIII B consisted of 28 students as experimental class.
The results of this research showed that the use of the Memrise application as a media for learning pronunciation can improve students' pronunciation ability. The value of ttest between students’ pronunciation ability who were taught by Memrise application and those who were not taught by Memrise application was 4,841. The result of computation using t-test formula of 5% signification level was 2,005. The ttest was higher than ttable, so that the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted. The results of the data analysis showed that in the experimental group the average pre-test was 67,86 and the post-test was 82,32 while in the control group the pre-test average value was 68.52 and the post-test was 72,59. From these data, it can be seen that the average post-test score of the experimental group is higher than the average post-test value of the control group. Therefore, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in students' pronunciation ability between students who were taught using the Memrise application and students who were not taught using the Memrise application.
