What are the characteristics of a successful
classroom speaking activity?
Students’ motivation is
high and oral production
becomes customary rather
than mandatory.
Language is of an
acceptable level and
learners get across their
ideas accurately.
Meaningful Interaction
Teacher - Student
Student- Student
Participation is even and
everybody gets the chance
to make contributions.
Learners talk a lot and feel
eager to speak in the target
language (L2).
Well-designed activities
according to the learners’
proficiency level & foster
oral skills development.
INHIBITION
• Students could feel uptight and afraid of making mistakes.
• Shy learners are often inhibited about trying to say things.
• Fearful of criticism or real-time exposure.
LOW OR UNEVEN PARTICIPATION
• Only one learner can talk at a time if he/she is to be heard.
• Very little talking time in large groups.
• The tendency of some “outgoing” learners to dominate,
while others speak very little or not at all.
NOTHING TO SAY
• The speaking activity is not appropriate for the students .
•The teacher asks vague or complicated questions.
•Incomprehensible input or difficult tasks.
What are some of the problems in getting
learners to talk in the classroom?
Use Group work
It increases the sheer
amount of learner talk and
also lowers inhibitions.
Base the activity on
“easy language” so
that learners can
speak fluently.
Give clear instructions
about participation or
training in discussion
skills.
Make a careful
choice of topic and
task to stimulate
interest.
