Abstract

Traditional language teaching methods have emphasized grammar and vocabulary acquisition; the development of learners' communicative skills has often been overlooked. As language educators strive to create dynamic and interactive learning environments, incorporating effective teaching techniques that promote authentic communication becomes imperative. This paper refers to many literature materials by means of the search of Know net to explore the effectiveness of a role-play activity in enhancing EFL learners' communicative skills.
