Abstract

In the context of learning a language, be it Primary or secondary, there are 4 macro skills that need to be developed to effectively communicate in that language and speaking is one of them. In the environment of pedagogy of EFL (English as Foreign Language), increasing the confidence & competence of speaking in students at undergrad level is a critical task amongst the instructors. This issue led to designing of qualitative research as part of the regular course of study as an approach based on task. Results of the research indicate that speaking competence, topic creativity and confidence were major contributors to speaking development specially when addressing audiences. Keywords:Development of English speaking, ESL/EFL enhancing factors, communication skill
