Speaking Lesson Plan.

Abstract

This paper examines the application of different methodologies for teaching English as a foreign language (TEFL), aiming to promote the balanced development of the four main language skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The study explores three key pedagogical models: ECRIF (Encounter, Clarify, Remember, Internalize, Fluently Use), which focuses on improving oral communication; PDP (Pre, During, Post), designed to enhance listening and reading comprehension; and PDREE (Preparation, Drafting, Revising, Editing, Extension), which supports the development of writing skills. In addition, the paper reflects on how these methodological frameworks guided lesson planning, activity selection, and pedagogical decision-making throughout the teaching process. The findings show that the thoughtful implementation of these models addressed students’ real learning needs, fostering meaningful, participatory, and student-centered learning experiences. Finally, the study highlights the adaptability of these approaches to different educational contexts, emphasizing the importance of connecting pedagogical theory with classroom practice.
