Oral communication is important for developing students' proficiency and communicative competence. Developing fluency requires components like pronunciation, suprasegmental teaching, and combining approaches. Students need constant exposure and practice to build fluency. There are three modes of practice: imitation, rehearsal, and extemporaneous speech which can increase speaking rate and reduce hesitations. Developing fluency also involves selecting discussion topics, giving peer feedback, and limiting teacher interference.
