Abstract

The article discusses the process of developing oral English skills through active communication. It shows that the communicative approach ensures the formation of practical speaking skills, the development of confidence, fluency, and the ability to use the language in real-life situations. Particular attention is paid to role-playing, group discussions, project work, listening comprehension, and the use of modern technologies. The article also considers aspects of motivation, independent learning, and intercultural competence that contribute to effective English language acquisition. The article emphasizes that speaking skills can only be developed through practice, interaction, and regular use of the language, rather than simply memorizing rules and vocabulary.
