INTRODUCTION
In the modern era of globalization and rapid technological advancement, the
importance of English as an international language has significantly increased.
English is widely used as a medium of communication in various fields such as
education, business, science, and international relations. As a result, the ability to
communicate effectively in English has become a crucial skill for learners worldwide.
Among the four fundamental language skills—listening, speaking, reading, and
writing—speaking is often considered the most essential, as it enables direct
interaction and real-time communication. However, developing speaking skills in
English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms remains a challenging task for both
teachers and learners. One of the primary difficulties in teaching speaking skills lies
in creating an environment where learners feel confident and motivated to express
themselves. Many students experience anxiety, fear of making mistakes, and lack of
self-confidence when speaking in a foreign language. These psychological barriers
can significantly hinder their ability to participate actively in classroom activities and
limit their language development. Therefore, it is essential to implement teaching
methods that not only improve linguistic competence but also foster a supportive
and engaging learning atmosphere. In this context, communicative language
teaching (CLT) has emerged as an effective approach that emphasizes the use of
language for meaningful communication. Within this framework, interactive and
student-centered activities play a vital role in enhancing learners’ speaking abilities.
One of the most widely recognized and effective techniques in this regard is the use
of role-playing games. Role-playing activities involve learners taking on different roles 354
and acting out real-life or imaginary situations, allowing them to practice language
