Abstract

The quality of our expression depends
on our use of speaking skills. The importance and value of speaking English has
been accepted worldwide. English language is most dynamic and crucial aspect of
universal human interaction. In Pakistan, teaching of English was mainly
focused upon reading and writing skills. But in today's world, listening and
speaking skills have become much more important than in the past. Present study
is an investigation in the field of teaching speaking skills through A.V. Aids.
It is said that now the trends have been changed and teachers are getting
acknowledged with the importance of speaking skills. Recently, AV. aids are
being used frequently in the classrooms to make the teaching learning process
easy, attractive and interesting. At the same time when trends are changing on
daily basis, there are some Govt. institutes which are still following the
traditional methods of teaching speaking skills. In Pakistani scenario, the
situation is alarming. Govt. institutes are still following the traditional
ways of teaching. So in the present study, the focus is on this matter whether
the use of A.V. Aids can be beneficial in bringing a positive change in the
teaching learning process of speaking skills for the ESL learners. So the
current study investigates the use of A.V. Aids in classrooms and its drastic
effects on teaching speaking skills to the teen aging ESL learners. The collective
problems of teacher and the students during speaking skills was the main focus
of the study. It was a pre-test post-test experimental design. Fifty students
participated in this study. Sample of the study were teen aging ESL learners.
Observation and questionnaire were used as a tool to collect data from
respondents. There was a significant difference between pre-test and post-test
results. It was suggested that speech practice training with the help of AV
aids should encouraged at secondary level.
