The objective of this research is to explore how the diphthong sounds influence the pronunciation students faculty of letters UMI in the academic year 2023- 2024 through the English Language Speech Assistant application and to investigate to what extent the diphthong sounds influence the pronunciation students faculty of letters UMI in the academic year 2023-2024 through the English Language Speech Assistant application.

The results of the researcher showed that the English Language Speech Assistant (ELSA) application was significant in improving students' pronunciation. This is because before using the English Language Speech Assistant (ELSA) application, the average score of students was 52.79, but after students used the ELSA application, the average score of students increased to 67.5 with a percentage increase of 27.86%. This significant increase occurred because Language Speech Assistant (ELSA) can help improve students' pronunciation skills.
