Abstract

Abstract The primary objective of this research is to examine the impact of teachers' positive and negative feedback on students' speaking proficiency, as well as the potential influence of such feedback on the overall classroom atmosphere. To accomplish this, a quantitative research method was employed, involving the development of two questionnaires. The study targeted a sample of 41 English language students and 12 English language teachers from the Faculty of Education at Qaser Ben Ghashir. The findings of the study revealed that students' oral skills are greatly influenced and motivated by positive feedback from their teachers. Furthermore, students expressed a preference for feedback that addresses their individual needs and assists in resolving their speaking-related challenges.
