Dramatization in Higher Education: An active strategy to foster speaking skills in EFL learners.

Oral expression is one of the difficult skills that students must master in English. In oral expression classes, students have several problems, such as a lack of enthusiasm and motivation when speaking. This study explores the effectiveness of using dramatization to develop oral skills in second-semester language students. Dramatization, which involves active participation and emotional involvement, offers a unique and compelling method for improving language proficiency. Using thematic dramatizations has many advantages, one of which is encouraging students to speak. This study will use a mixed method to collect data. The results show that the teaching technique of dramatization can significantly improve students' oral expression skills in the classroom.
