Improving Listening Skills through Teaching Assimilation and Elision

Abstract

This research, which is an experimental study, hypothesizes that teaching of fluency devices enhances speaking skills of the English language learners. To test this hypothesis an experimental group which consisted of 20 participants, was given treatment for six weeks by manipulating independent variable that is teaching of the fluency devices. The control group was given a usual training. Both of the groups were given pretest before the start of training and were post tested at the end of the treatment to find the result of the training given to experimental group. As the experimental group outperformed the control group, the hypothesis stands justified.
