| dc.description | Speaking is an aspect of communication and a key goal for many adult students taking English language lessons. As research suggests, speaking and listening are the most frequently used language skills in the classroom and are essential for functioning in English-speaking contexts (Brown, 1994; Rivers, 1981). However, developing these skills is a challenging task that requires focused instruction and attention. One major issue that adult students face is their lack of confidence and proficiency in speaking, particularly in terms of intonation, pronunciation, linking, and reduction (Van Duzer, 1997). This can result in difficulties communicating effectively with native speakers and participating in conversations. While teachers play a significant role in helping learners develop their speaking skills, it is important for them to take ownership of their own learning and become more autonomous. As a teacher of English as a foreign language, I have noticed several problems in my adult students' speaking abilities. Pronunciation is often a challenge for them due to differences in their native language sound system and English, resulting in difficulty being understood by native speakers. In addition, fluency can be a struggle as adult learners pause frequently to search for the right words or grammar structures. Vocabulary is also a common issue, as students may lack the necessary words to express themselves accurately. Furthermore, grammar structures can be difficult for adult learners, leading to errors that can affect communication. Anxiety and a lack of confidence can further inhibit their ability to express themselves. Additionally, cultural differences may affect their understanding of English idiomatic expressions and references. Finally, a lack of opportunities for practice outside the classroom can hinder progress in improving their speaking skills. Self-assessment can be a powerful tool in enhancing the speaking skills of adult students, as it enables them to self-reflect on their performance, thereby becoming cognizant of both their strengths and weaknesses. As a result, they can take proactive measures to address any areas requiring improvement. This research project aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of self-assessment in improving adult students' speaking and to encourage them to take a more active role in their own language development. | es_EC |
