    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2024) Aissaoui, Rami; Adjadj, Djalila
    Improving the speaking abilities of EFL students is essential to the teaching and learning process. Teachers must therefore incorporate and adjust to the newest techniques and strategies. The purpose of this study is to ascertain how EFL instructors and students perceive the introduction of the presentation skills and strategies module, which is intended to improve speaking abilities. In an effort to identify the most typical speaking issues and offer advice on how to resolve them and advance their speaking abilities, the study was carried out during the academic year 2023-2024 on forty (40) second-year students and twelve (12) teachers of the oral expression subject in the department of English at Larbi Ben Mhidi University. In an attempt to diagnose the most common speaking difficulties that EFL students face and to suggest some recommendations to overcome their problems and promote their ability to speak, two online questionnaires were administered to both EFL teachers and students. The obtained data from both questionnaires revealed that both EFL teachers and learners showed a positive attitude towards the introduction of the presentation skills and strategies course for the second-year LMD program. The most significant findings of this research work can be summarized as follows: First, teachers are aware of the various obstacles their learners face when it comes to speaking skills and are prepared to take action by agreeing to introduce presentation skills and strategies to second-year EFL students to overcome these difficulties and improve their overall speaking skills. Second, EFL learners can overcome speaking barriers and are willing to participate in decisions about integrating presentation skills and strategies into their current curriculum. This research sheds light on many benefits for the students and teachers of our university.
