| Abstract | ||
| The main concern of this research was to probe the impact of using some innovative strategies: information Gap Activity, Think Pair Share, and Role-Plays, on developing EFL Speaking Skills of Hospitality Students. Participants of the present study consisted of (83) of hospitality students (boys and girls) at the higher institute for specific studies-Heliopolis, Cairo. They were divided into two groups (No.= 42) for the experimental group and (No.= 41) for the control group. The pre-post quasi experimental design was used. The experimental group was taught according to the procedures of the innovative assigned strategies while the control group was taught using the regular method. Instruments included an EFL speaking test and a rubric for assessing students’ speaking skills. The study lasted for 10 weeks, a session a week for each group, in addition to the pre-and posttest sessions. T-test results revealed that the experimental group students outperformed those of the control group ones on the EFL speaking skills as a result of the innovative strategies the instructor used with them. It was concluded that the application of innovative strategies for improving speaking skills had a very positive impact on hospitality students | ||
