Abstrak:
This study investigates the effect of peer-tutoring strategies on EFL students’ oral communication skills within cooperative learning settings. Peer-tutoring is a collaborative method where students help each other understand and practice language tasks, providing guidance and feedback. The research demonstrates how structured peer-tutoring activities enhance speaking skills, increase learners’ confidence, and foster active engagement. By promoting interaction, mutual support, and collaborative problem-solving, peer-tutoring helps students overcome speaking anxiety and improves fluency, vocabulary usage, and pronunciation. Findings suggest that integrating peer-tutoring into cooperative learning classrooms is an effective approach to developing both linguistic competence and oral communication confidence among EFL learners.
