MONOLOGICAL SPEECH AS A KEY FACTOR IN SPEECH DEVELOPMENT FOR LEARNERS OF ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

Аннотация

Speech development is a vital aspect of language learning, particularly in the context of English as a foreign language (EFL). While much of the focus in communicative language teaching has been on dialogical interaction, monological speech—where a speaker engages in extended discourse—offers unique benefits for language acquisition. In the EFL classroom, the use of monological speech tasks, such as presentations, speeches, and storytelling, promotes deeper language processing and enables learners to practice language production without immediate feedback from others.
