THE IMPORTANCE OF TEACHING PUBLIC SPEAKING
Abstract: today particular attention is paid to the implementation of two conceptions being a strategic importance for the quality development of the educational sphere, digital learning and improvement of the foreign language teaching methodologies, using science and innovative technologies in the spheres. The article highlights some techniques used in improving public speaking skills, required in language learning and teaching, theoretical material on differences between public speech and conversation.
Key words: English as Foreign Language, EFL, methodology, jig-saw speech.
Particular attention is paid to the implementation of two conceptions being a strategic importance for the quality development of the educational sphere, digital learning and improvement of the foreign language teaching methodologies, using science and innovative technologies in the spheres.
Formation of the comprehensively developed young generation with deep knowledge and a broad outlook, training of highly qualified staff capable of thinking in a new way are the priority tasks of any society.
Working with students learning English as a foreign language we noticed that speaking facing the class is a big problem for some students. Usually, students are eager to answer the questions or retell a story looking at a teacher, leaving the audience behind. Dealing with this problem makes the instructor of English think about teaching some tools of public speaking.
Public speaking involves talking in front of a group of people, usually with some preparation. It can be in front of people that you know (e.g. at a family celebration) or a crowd of strangers. Unlike a presentation there normally isn’t a lot of opportunity for interaction between the audience and the speaker – the speaker speaks, and the audience (hopefully) listens. [2]
Teaching the English language, we reckon with a problem, which is as important as the other issues of language learning. Students, especially at the beginning of the course, get nervous to make a speech facing the audience. Most of them feel the anxiety, which is normal, in fact, but teaching them to control their nervousness, to bring up a good speaker who can share his ideas with his peers and uphold them is the duty of the instructor.
In our opinion, it is urgent to guide the students in preparing speeches, especially if their future profession deals with teaching a foreign language, since overcoming language barrier and stage fright is of vital importance for the professional competitiveness of future teacher.
Various activities held during ESL lessons such as making presentations or reading the written essays on different topics usually help our colleagues to achieve the goal. One of the main issues of students in the class speech is their fright of facing the class. Therefore, at the beginning of the course it would be better to organize group speeches, we call them “jig-saw speech”, where each student in the group has his own part of the speech. Gradually, decreasing the numbers of group members we may accomplish a part of our target task. Individuals who may work by themselves might be observed.
Before setting students a task it is significant to focus their attention on the preparation which involves:
In the article we tried to highlight some techniques used in improving public speaking skills, required in language learning and teaching, theoretical material on differences between public speech and conversation, which will hopefully be useful for our colleagues.
