This study described the findings of a two-cycle collaborative Classroom Action Research project between a lecturer and a teacher in Indonesia. The study analyzes students' English-speaking attitudes. 8 meetings rich in role-play activities were designed to improve students' English-speaking attitudes by continuously analyzing and modifying instruction. The study was designed using the spiral cycle model. This model has four (four) steps: Plan - Actions - Observe - and Reflect. This study employed two data collection methods: interviews and observation. Data were analyzed in which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusions. This study reveals that there are four stages to implement Role play technique to increase students English-speaking attitudes.
