Teachers perspectives towards factors that hinder speaking development among Sudanese secondary schools students : a case study : English Language teachers at secondary schools

Abstract EN

This study aims to investigate the factors that hinder speaking promotion among Sudanese secondary schools students.

The problem of this study emerges from the fact that most of those students are unable to speak English fluently.

The study is going to reveal the difficulties, and factors that restrict speaking promotion.

A descriptive analytical approach is adopted in conducting this study.

The population of the study is the English language teachers of secondary schools in the Locality of Bahri (2016).

A questionnaire was constructed.

The program used for statistical analysis to reach the results is SPSS.

The main findings of the study are that teaching speaking doesn’t find sufficient concern.

Also the syllabus content doesn’t contain materials that stimulate speaking.

Moreover, the absence of language laboratories and insufficient listening affect negatively on the process of speaking.

The study recommended some suggestions as more time and concern should be given to speaking skill.

Using speaking techniques should promote interaction in classroom.

Schools should create periodical oral exams in order to motivate students to deal more seriously with speaking skills
