For non-English majored students, speaking is normally a skill to master with difficulties. In order to assess students’ speaking skill, Brown (2013) made a list of indicators including: fluency (capability of speaking easily and fluently), vocabulary (capability of choosing appropriate words related to the context), grammar (being able to regulate the words to make correct sentences), pronunciation (consisting of suprasegmental features including stress, rhythm, intonation; the listener can understand clearly what the speaker says) and comprehension (understanding what speaker says and what he/she explains). |
