Main Article Content
Abstract
This article examines teaching methods that incorporate cognitive strategies to improve speaking skills among English as a foreign language (EFL) learner. Emphasizing learner-centered approaches, the article reveals the effectiveness of repetition and practice through the use of role-playing, visual organizers, and mind maps, and the development of self-monitoring and self-assessment skills. Together, these cognitive strategies foster more effective, confident, and independent speakers in the EFL classroom.
