Abstract

Classroom management is an effective factor in enhancing the oral production of students because it gives them with the opportunity to use the target language fluently. In addition, a well managed classroom gives learners a chance to use the language naturally and to play a greater role in building students oral abilities. According to this study, we hypothesize that EFL learners need to have a well managed classroom that will help them certainly to develop their oral performance. So in order to confirm this hypothesis, we investigated this study through questionnaires to first year LMD students and an interview with teachers of oral expression at the department of English at Djilali Bounaama University-Khemis Miliana. Moreover this study aims at showing the impact of a well managed classroom on developing the learners’ oral production. Our present study is divided into two main parts a theoretical part that includes two chapters in which it made a general overview about classroom management and some important elements and equipments that include it. In the second chapter it shed the light on the different aspects of the speaking skill, and gave a detailed description of the difficulties that EFL learners face during their oral production. Moreover, from the analysis and data obtained of the students’ questionnaire and teachers’ interview showed that both learners and teachers consider classroom management as an important factor in enhancing their oral production. So, EFL learners need a well managed classroom that helps them to find the suitable atmosphere in order to get their speaking weaknesses.
