This study looked at how seventh-grade students' speaking abilities were affected by task-based language teaching methods. The Merdeka curriculum gave teachers and students the freedom to encourage creativity, and task-based learning encouraged engagement and hands-on learning. The researcher separated the 58 students into two groups using a cluster random selection method in a quantitative framework and a true experimental design: VII-H, which had 29 students, was the experimental group; VII-I, which also had 29 students, was the control group. The primary data collection method was an oral examination, and the findings of the pre-tests and post-tests were analysed using SPSS version 19. The null hypothesis (H₀) was rejected since the results' significance value (0.000) was less than the 0.05 threshold, whereas the alternative hypothesis (H₁) was accepted. These results showed that students' communication skills in descriptive texts were enhanced by task-based learning strategies.
