| description | The world is being globalized day by day and the need for knowing English is becoming higher. However, knowing is not only having the knowledge of grammatical and lexical parts of English, it is also about having a good level of speaking skills, as it is the core of communication around the globe. Speaking skills might be regarded as one of the most difficult skills in English, and the studies mostly focused on the problems behind not being able to enhance it effectively and finding solutions to enhance it. The present action research, similarly, tries to find a new way of speaking activity in order to enhance English preparatory class students’ speaking skills. Unlike previous studies, a novel way of peer-to-peer speaking activity has been applied and the findings showed the effectiveness of the action in a short span of time. |
