Speaking is considered by learners as one of the most difficult skills as it involves real-time processing which means that learners don't have much time to formulate what they want to say and how to say that students often avoid speaking and therefore never get the opportunity to build up reliance straight through practice. A additional presuppose that students avoid speaking is that they are afraid it. It is for this reason, and the fact that they are afraid to make mistakes, of not being understood because of poor pronunciation. This poor pronunciation often stems from old learning experiences where there has been an emphasis on written accuracy with petite opportunity to organize oral skills. Students may also, in many cases, have petite opportunity to convention their English speaking covering of the classroom environment.
Steps to Teaching Oral Skills:
1. It is advisable to present and model language that is understandable and appropriate to the learners' level of proficiency. This may be done in a whole of ways: You could opt to:
• use visuals or other materials
• use dialogue, or situation in dialogue, role play, facts gap, questions and answers, drills, opinion, etc.
• by comparison new vocabulary and grammar
2. Check understanding frequently by:
• asking questions that want verbal and nonverbal responses
• eliciting answers from private students
• allowing students to discuss (agree/disagree) with responses
• fascinating around the room and listening to responses
3. Give students ample opportunities to convention by:
• providing materials for convention (visuals, worksheets, etc.)
• have learners convention in dissimilar groupings - pairs, small groups, whole groups, individually.
Classroom Discussions
A class consulation is not as easy as one may think. Students may not have an interest in the topic you have proposed, no motivation or a real fear of speaking in front of the class. These objections will need to be addressed if there is a opportunity of any worthwhile consulation taking place. There may be a whole of aims for a discussion; the main aim regularly being an opportunity to heighten fluency as opposed to accuracy. In order to ensure that every person gets an equal opportunity to speak, it is a good idea to organize speaking activities into pairs, groups and whole class.
Fluency before Accuracy
It is foremost to organize whether you are encouraging fluency or accuracy? Once this has been established, you can adapt your role in the episode appropriately. If the main aim of the episode is to encourage freer speaking and communication, then the educator should adopt a less conspicuous role, thus allowing for a freer flow of language and ideas (fluency).
Drama and Role-play
Using Drama in the classroom setting provides a beneficial and enjoyable medium in which to scrutinize language. Students can express themselves in a collection of ways and may be movable into a world of imagination. Students are able to shed their inhibitions, taking on the role of an entirely dissimilar character and shaking the shackles of culture and group expectations. Furthermore, these characters may find themselves in a new environment, totally removed from the constraints of the classroom. In this way, the classroom can be miraculously transformed into banks, airports, shops, bars, group gatherings etc. Drama and role-play can also be a very beneficial beginning point for skills and systems based work, providing convention in exact language areas. In order for role-play to be successful, there needs to be a good narrative in the middle of the educator and students based on mutual trust. Without such an climate the likelihood of success is greatly diminished.
