This document discusses techniques for teaching speaking to students. It outlines three components of speaking instruction: mechanical practice focusing on sounds, verbs, and grammar; meaningful oral work like greetings and complaints; and free oral production. It also provides procedures for speaking activities, such as dividing students into groups, assigning topics, allowing time for discussion, and providing feedback. Some techniques mentioned include dialogues, interviews, role-plays, problem-solving activities, and debates. The overall goal is to help students speak English fluently, correctly, accurately, and adequately.
