Teaching speaking is a very important part of second language learning. The ability to
communicate in a second language clearly and efficiently contributes to the success of the
learner in school and success later in every phase of life. Therefore, it is essential that
language teachers pay great attention to teaching speaking. Rather than leading students to
pure memorization, providing a rich environment where meaningful communication takes
place is desired. Various speaking activities such as those listed above can contribute a great
deal to students in developing basic interactive skills necessary for life. These activities make
students more active in the learning process and at the same time make their learning more
meaningful and fun for them.

When planning a speaking skills lesson, be aware that using language in speech is not
necessarily practice of speaking as a language skill. Developing the range of competencies
that make a good speaker takes focus on the ways that we speak to different people, and the
ways we construct what we are saying. This is independent from the grammar and vocabulary
we use in real life, so should be kept separate from pure language input in the language
classroom.

Activities to teaching speaking can using disscussion, roleplay, storytelling, picture

describing and etc.
