English language
Aspect of speech.
When Teaching speaking its often a voluntary action of a given language and ENGLISH LANGUAGE in particular. Therefore the origin of a person determines the level of language use. Therefore when we are Teaching English language, teachers must always forcus on changing the attitude of students and children towards loving the subject.
Speaking can always be more pragmatic when teachers allow students to practice it in a practical matter. This is through open air speeches and and recitation of poetry. This is a mastery technique for language speech
