Abstract: Speaking competence is a fundamental aspect of English language
learning that significantly influences students’ academic and professional success.
Traditional teaching methods often do not provide sufficient opportunities for
interactive speaking practice or personalized feedback. The integration of Artificial
Intelligence (AI) in language education offers innovative solutions to these challenges.
AI software can enhance students’ speaking abilities by providing real-time feedback,
adaptive learning paths, and interactive conversational experiences. This article
explores the theoretical foundations of speaking competence, reviews the role of AI in
English teaching, and discusses practical approaches to effectively incorporate AI tools
in the classroom.
