In communicative language teaching, we often talk about working on either fluency or accuracy when we get students to generate language, but are they really so mutually exclusive? Can we really have one without the other?
In this talk, I will explore the essentials needed for successful speaking tasks. The focus will be on establishing the difference between accuracy and fluency, the various elements that make up being able to speak fluently and accurately, before showing where they meet. We will then go through frameworks and tasks that allow us, or more properly our students, achieve both these seemingly different goals.
