Therefore, one of the solutions offered is to use the Techno Driven Task (Zig Zag Task) in teaching speaking skill for students. This study aims to determine the speaking skills of English students at Pasir Pengaraian University by using computer-aided Techno Driven Task (Zig Zag Task). The research designs is descriptive quantitative research. The participants of this research was the fourth semester students of English Study Program in University of Pasir Pengaraian. The number of samples of this research was 19 students. In collecting the data, the researcher took from students’ presentation when they were using zig zag task.
