professional contexts. The study highlights interactive teaching methods, task-based
learning, project-based learning, and digital tools as effective strategies for improving
speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills. The article also discusses the
psychological and motivational benefits of innovative methods, such as increased
learner engagement, autonomy, and confidence.
