ENHANCING STUDENTS’ SPEAKING SKILLS THROUGH INTERACTIVE CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES

Abstract

Developing speaking skills is one of the most essential aspects of English language teaching. However, many students face difficulties expressing their ideas fluently and confidently. This paper aims to investigate the impact of interactive classroom activities—such as role-plays, debates, and communicative games—on improving students’ speaking performance. A mixed-method approach was used, involving both qualitative observations and quantitative assessment. The study concludes that interactive learning greatly enhances students’ oral confidence and fluency, providing a more engaging environment for language development.
