The article explores the specific features of oral speech development among secondary school students in Uzbekistan, where English is taught as a foreign language. Drawing upon Second Language Acquisition (SLA) theory and Krashen’s hypotheses, the paper analyzes the psychological, linguistic, and pedagogical factors affecting oral communication. It identifies the main difficulties faced by learners in non-native contexts and proposes effective strategies to foster fluency, confidence, and motivation. Emphasis is placed on communicative approaches, task-based learning, and the use of digital tools to create authentic speaking opportunities. The research concludes that systematic, interactive, and student-centered instruction is essential for the successful development of oral skills.
