xAbstract
This article explores the benefits of using the retelling technique to enhance speaking skills in language learners. Retelling, which involves recounting a story or event in one’s own words, is shown to improve fluency, vocabulary retention, and comprehension. The study reviews relevant research, highlighting its effectiveness in ESL and EFL classrooms. Key findings indicate that retelling aids in structuring speech, reducing anxiety, and reinforcing pronunciation. The article also discusses challenges and suggests practical applications, including digital tools, to maximize learning outcomes. The study concludes that integrating retelling into language instruction significantly enhances communication skills.
