I learnt about the last skill "Speaking" which is related to writing, both of them are productive skills because we are reciving information and at the same time we are producing it. Speaking involves speech to communicate meanings to others. for example: Intonation, ask for explanation, greet people, or paraphrase. When you combine all of them is possible, to play accuracy and appropriacy in the oral communication. Furthermore, the communication depens on the register that you use, it can be in the appropriate degree of formality or informality to treat the listener.
It is necessary that the teacher makes students involve in interactive speaking strategies to make them aware about what they are saying, also these include gestures, facial expressions, turn taking which will help them in order to work out in a natural fluency conversation or maybe controlled practice activities, those in which teachers make drilling activities in order to students repeat, memorize and saying things learnt by heart that are memorised.
Those kind of activities can help students to motivate themselves, but it is not an easy job because teachers need to create frequently speaking activities in order to students get confidence at the moment to speak and dont feel embarrased in front of their partners.
I want to show a really good video in which give us advices to become good english speaker

ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Speaking involves speech to communicate meanings to others, we as future techers must provide students some activities to help them to improve this skill. For example, making role plays would be great inside th classroom
