Аннотация:There are many ways to structure learning withing the teaching and learning approaches. Key to the success of any learning is to create a relaxed atmosphere where students are invited to take risks and contribute to the learning success while involved in these activities.
Role-playing involves assigning learners roles in life-like situations so students can learn linguistic structures relevant to conversation, and improvise conversations and behaviours for particular situations. For example, future journalists can play the situations interviewing the applicant for a job on his newspaper as an editor-in-chief or making an appointment with the celebrity.
Simulations like longer role-plays for more advanced learners. They involve a problem and information needed for the solution.
We should make students aware that English is not just words, structures and idioms, but it is a lively, dramatic and versatile means of communication. Learning and teaching can and should be pleasurable. So it should be emphasized that drama and role-playing offer an excellent opportunity for students to develop fluency in English.
