نبذة مختصرة : General considerations for developing speaking skills In recent years, the development of communication skills has been recognized as a central goal of foreign language teaching (FU). This tendency was accentuated in the course of so-called communicative didactics in newer DaF syllabuses, curricula and textbooks. For the learner, however, the learning objective “oral communication” remains an existing challenge in German lessons, especially since speaking and listening skills are closely linked. Both together determine the degree of verbal ability to act, i.e. the "communicative competence". Furthermore, the development of speaking skills relates to other skills. Listening and speaking in class are the two actions that should be realized through communication; Speaking and writing are two productive skills, they appear in the classroom as mediators and target activities. Tharough this paper, it is clearly stated that the speaking skill has an important place in methods of teaching a foreign language, especially mediation. Speaking alone is not enough, the teacher should contribute other sub-skills to promote speaking skills. The use of the media serves as an opportunity to develop speaking skills among students. Also, social and exercise forms should also be used in speaking. Henceforth, learning speaking is a target in foreign language classroom situations which should take into consideration. The acquisition of such a skill should be emphasized through media use. Some factors contribute to the development of oral competence, namely social and other typology activities which were discussed in this research paper.
