The aim of this study is to find out the significant difference in achievement between students who are taught by using storytelling technique with picture series and those who are not taught by using storytelling technique with picture series. Furthermore, it explores students’ anxiety in using storytelling technique with picture series. The samples of the study are the first grade students of State Senior High School 1 Gandapura batch 2020-2021. Two classes were randomly selected for the sample; IPA-3 for the experimental class and IPS-1 for the control class. Each class consisted of twenty students. Test and questionnaire were used to collect the data. It was analyzed by using SPSS and Microsoft Excel. The finding shows that the value of Sig. (2-tailed) = 0.009 is less than the Significance level ? = 0.05. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. As for the second question, based on the data provided, it can be concluded that most of the students experienced high level anxiety when they have little time to think about what they have to say in English as well as when their oral skills were put to test. Subsequently, the students are likely to experience low level anxiety due to their poor pronunciation and intonation. However, they experience moderate level of anxiety when the storytelling technique with picture series was used in speaking.
