“…This student-centered teaching approach, incorporating elements of coaching and mentoring, significantly reduced anxiety levels and enhanced linguistic confidence. The study reported that students experienced improvement in speaking proficiency (Al-Tingari & Kama, 2018) These findings align with numerous other studies, including (Hidayat, 2023;Hijriati, 2022;Neupane, 2019;Nik Al-Din et al, 2014;Roengrit et al, 2023;al-Tingari &Kama, 2018 andTipmontree &Tasanameelarp, 2018). Collectively, these studies underscore the positive impact of role-playing activities on the language proficiency and confidence of students learning Arabic as a foreign language.…”

Mastering speaking skills poses a considerable challenge for students learning a foreign language, especially when doing so in their hometown, far from an authentic language environment. This study aimed to assess students' speaking proficiency and analyze the impact of role-playing activities on their skills. Following an experimental method, 40 male and female students majoring in Arabic at the University of Putra Malaysia (UPM) were selected. The study employed an applied model of speaking activities, with a focus on "roleplaying" as a teaching method enabling students to practice daily life interactions in the classroom. Two sets of pre-tests and post-tests served as instruments for data collection. The analysis revealed significant differences in speaking proficiency before and after the activities when comparing pre-test and post-test results. The findings demonstrated a marked improvement in students' conversational skills after engaging in role-playing activities during lessons, resulting in enhanced proficiency and confidence in Arabic conversation. The study also confirmed that integrating role-playing as a linguistic activity in group interactions between students and teachers facilitated the expression of feelings and boosted students' self-confidence.

“…The findings revealed that task-based teaching with peer-mediated strategies helped to develop learners' OECSs in different EFL contexts (Mamo et al, 2015;Tsai, 2019). The role-play teaching method also had a significant impact on increasing learners' motivation and confidence for developing OECSs (Nasihah, 2019;Tipmontree & Tasanameelarp, 2018). The findings showed that the storytelling task-based teaching method was found useful for the development of adult learners' oral communication skills in the Nepalese context.…”

The objective of this systematic review is to present a critical overview of current studies to explore issues such as the factors causing EFL learners’ poor oral performance and the teaching and assessment methods of oral English communication skills (OECSs) for developing tertiary level learners’ OECSs in EFL contexts. For this purpose, 51 empirical studies of the 2907 retrieved from SpringerLink, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and the Google Scholar database that were published between 2010 and 2019 in different EFL contexts were analyzed. This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and was analyzed thematically using NVIVO 12, followed by the Mendeley reference management software. Studies that were conducted in native English contexts and non-empirical studies were excluded from consideration for this study. The findings showed that the environmental factor was the primary factor for learners’ poor OECS performance in EFL contexts. For the method of teaching and assessment of learners’ OECSs, the use of technology is rapidly increasing in different EFL contexts. This study suggests some implications for both future researchers and academics for developing EFL learners’ oral English communication skills dealing with environmental, psychological, and linguistic factors along with teaching and learning resources at the tertiary level in EFL contexts.

“…Akter (2017) also concluded on his study that role play becomes one of the best ways to develop communicative competence among tertiary level students in Bangladesh. However, a study conducted by Tipmontree (2018) revealed that there is an improvement on the students' speaking skill, although some students still had difficulties in delivering dialogues while performing the role-play due to their anxiety in speaking.…”

This study aims at describing the implementation of role play technique in order to improve students’ English oral communication. The subjects of this study were forty students of UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang majoring at Islamic Banking who are taking English 1 as a compulsory subject at semester III. To meet the objective of this study, Classroom Action Research (CAR) which involved planning, acting, observing, and reflecting was used as the design of research. The data of this qualitative study were gathered through observation, interview, and documentation. Meanwhile, the result of this study was presented descriptively based on the phenomena occurred during the implementation of role-play in the process of teaching and learning. In addition, the findings of this study revealed that by applying role-play technique, the students are able to improve their English oral communication as well as increase their motivation in learning English. Role play technique allows the students to be more active in the class as they get much opportunity to speak based on the context given in a real-life situation..
