Improving Speaking Skills of Future English Teachers Through Innovative Digital Technologies

Speaking is one of the core skills in language learning and a fundamental component of the professional competence of future English teachers. The ability to communicate effectively in English reflects not only linguistic knowledge but also a teacher’s readiness to guide learners in real-life communication. However, many students in EFL contexts face difficulties in oral expression due to limited practice, lack of confidence, and insufficient exposure to authentic language environments. This study examines the role of innovative digital technologies in improving speaking skills, focusing on effective methods, practical implementation, and their impact on learners’ fluency, confidence, and communicative competence.
