Teaching Speaking

Teaching speaking is to teach English language learners to:
1) Produce the English speech sounds and sounds patterns.
2) Use words and sentence stress, intonation patterns and the rhythm of the second language
3) Select appropriate words and sentences according to the proper social setting, audience, situation and subject matter.
4) Organize their thoughts in a meaningful and logical sequence.
5) Use language as a means of expressing values and judgments.
6) Use the language quickly and confidently with few unnatural pauses, which is called fluency. (Nunan 2003)

Speaking

In Oxford Advanced Dictionary the definition of speaking is to express or communicate opinions, feelings, ideas, etc, by or as talking and it involves the activities in the part of the speaker as psychological, physiological (articulator) and physical (acoustic) stages.According to Chaney, speaking is the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal and non-verbal symbols, in a variety of contexts. While another expert, Theodore Huebner said Language is essentially speech, and speech is basically communication by sounds. And according to him, speaking is a skill used by someone in daily life communication whether at school or outside.From the above definition, it can be inferred that speaking is expressing ideas, opinions, or feelings to others by using words or sounds of articulation in order to inform, to persuade, and to entertain that can be learnt by using some teaching  learning methodologies.

Good Speaking

Good communication comes in many forms and styles. No rule is ever set in stone and breaking
the rules can sometimes be the best way to get your point across. You should figure out what
works best for you and develop your own style. The tips I have included here should help most
people become better speakers, but please take them and leave them as you wish.
Don't be fooled into thinking that rhetoric is an innate ability - it is a learned skill. Behind every
perfect delivery is hours of careful preparation. The only way to become a good speaker is to
practice. Take every opportunity you can to speak. No suggestion will do you any good if you
don't take the time to apply it.
Whenever you do speak, always dress appropriately. You should look at least as good as your
audience does. If you are appearing as an authority on your subject, dress better than your
audience, if possible.
Always try to be informed on your subject. An audience can usually tell if you don't know what
you are talking about. If someone asks a question you don't have the answer to, it is okay to say
that you aren't sure. Be especially careful when your words may have undesired consequences.
After you speak, take the time to note what you did well and what you want to improve. You may
also want to ask a friend to evaluate part or all your speech. When you do, remember that they are
giving you their opinion. Don't become defensive at what they say. Their evaluation may give
you valuable insight. On the other hand, it may be wrong. Either way, it can be a good learning
experience.
