Moreover, to emphasize the fluency quality from each student, the researcher tried to adapted the theory from Lennon by counting the words per minute (excluding repetitions), filled pauses, and the percentage of „thought unit‟ followed by a pause from students‟ utterance. From the Investigation, the researcher found that each student has a different level of fluency in spoken-verbal communication due to several factors including participants‟ hesitation, a lack of capability to arrange the correct sentence, difficulties to explain the right statement, a lack of ability to understand the unfamiliar terminology, expression, advance vocabulary and varied accents from foreigner, unclear intonation and a low voice from speaking partners, etc. Moreover, the researcher found that free4talk.com website has an effective role in building a good fluency in spoken-verbal communication due to the utilization of thinking and communicating in English. From the result, it can be concluded that each student has a different level of fluency in spoken-verbal communication based on spoken-language assessment. Moreover, free4talk.com is the effective media to create a better fluency in verbal communication through conversation.
