productive skill, speaking proficiency is a ability to express
other meanings to other people.
Interaction is two-way communication that involves using language and
body language to keep our listener involved in what we are saying and to check
that they understand our meaning.
Sanavi
and Tarighat (2014: 81) point out that the speaking as the action
of conveying information
or expressing ones‘ thoughts and feelings in spoken languages, speaking
is the process of building and sharing meaning through the use of verbal or
non-verbal symbols in a variety of contexts and speaking as an interactive
process, which consists of three main stages producing, receiving and
processing information. In language teaching and learning, speaking is considered a skill to
be practiced and mastered. Speaking is the productive oral skill; It consists
of producing systematic verbal utterance to convey meaning
Lys
(2013: 96) Speaking proficiency as a social interaction is the key to learning
and that language and cognition are interdependent processes, three essential
learning principles: awareness (learner must first notice to learn), autonomy
(learner must be ready to learn and must be able to decide what he learns, how,
and when), and authenticity (each learning act must be intrinsically motivated).
