The language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols, which permit all people in a given
culture, or other people who have learnt the system of that culture, communication or to interact.
By speaking, we do not mean merely uttering words through mouth. It means conveying the
message through the words of mouth. This skill is also neglected in our class rooms. Students do
not get any chance either in the class room or outside to speak English. Speaking is not a part of
our examinations. Learning to speak also demands a lot of practice and attention. We learn to
speak our mother tongue just by listening and repeating. The teacher can adopt the same natural
way. He can give them certain structures and ask them to repeat. This will remove their shyness.
He can give those drills in the basic patterns of language. Asking short questions and the use of
short dialogues in the class room can also develop this skill. Speaking Skills
The learner can hardly understand anything at all, unless the speaker is talking about
things the learner is observing, or unless the language being learned is closely related to some
other language the learner knows. Through comprehension activities the learner can internalize
some vocabulary and some grammatical structures, which will help the learner to understand
more in stage two, when she or she knows enough to actually converse in a simple way. The
result of getting through stage one is that the learner has acquired enough of the basic building
blocks of the language to begin to function in real communication situations in a halting way. In
stage one there is very little real speaking ability, apart from some words and sentences that can
be built on the comprehension exercises. In real communication situations the learner has to
depend on memorized survival phrases to meet the most immediate needs.
Instrumentation
Two questionnaires (Three point Likert type scale) for students and teachers were
developed respectively. Each questionnaire was consisting of ten statements. The questionnaires
were tryout and piloted before finalization. After tryout and piloting questionnaires were
reviewed by three experts and five doctoral research fellows. The reliability coefficients of point
biserial correlation α for teachers’ and students’ questionnaire were 0.91 and 0.89 respectively.
