Impact of Interactive Websites on the Development of Speaking Skills at A2 Level in EFL Learners
Resumen
The integration of interactive websites in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction has transformed the development of speaking skills, especially for learners at the A2 level. These platforms offer dynamic and engaging environments where students can record their voices, receive feedback, and practice speaking in low-anxiety settings. Unlike traditional methods, interactive websites allow learners to repeat tasks, reflect on their performance, and gradually build fluency and confidence. Visual and auditory elements enhance comprehension and pronunciation, while peer collaboration encourages communicative competence. By supporting learner autonomy and providing personalized learning experiences, these tools address common barriers in oral language development such as fear of public speaking and limited classroom time. This study examines the impact of such platforms on speaking performance, focusing on fluency, accuracy, motivation, and student participation. Results suggest that digital tools play a significant role in enhancing oral communication skills and should be considered valuable components of modern language instruction.
