Mastering Phonetics in the EFL Classroom: The Pathway to Effective Oral Communication Skills
Abstract: The study's major purpose is to explore the efficacy of phonetic education in enhancing oral communication skills among EFL learners. A questionnaire for teachers was used to collect the data, and there were 30 participants in total. The data was analyzed using the statistical software SPSS. The study suggests that teachers add phonetics classes into EFL sessions and urge students to actively participate in class to improve oral communication skills. The researcher proposes undertaking additional research on the efficacy of various phonetic teaching approaches and how they affect the development of the oral communication skills in EFL learners. After considering the teacher's perspectives, the researcher believes that phonetic - based training significantly improved EFL learners' communication skills.
