The document discusses the goal of teaching speaking skills to improve students' communicative abilities. It states that the goal of language is communication and today's world requires improving students' ability to express themselves and follow social and cultural rules in different communicative situations. A variety of speaking activities are recommended to engage students, provide feedback, and allow practice producing language automatically, such as discussions, role-plays, interviews, problem-solving activities, and presentations. Teachers should correct pronunciation gently and sensitively while avoiding interruption and instead taking notes to provide feedback later.
