The Exploration and Reflection on Task-Based Language Teaching in Spoken English Teaching at Primary Schools: A Case Study of Xinxu Town Central Primary School in Yangxi County

This study aims to explore how the task-based approach can be effectively implemented in the teaching of spoken English in primary schools and to reflect on its impact on students’ speaking outcomes. In recent years, TBLT has been increasingly adopted in primary English language teaching due to its ability to create a more engaging, authentic, and student-centered classroom environment. However, despite its theoretical advantages, TBLT still faces many challenges when applied in primary school contexts. Using Xinxu Town Central Primary School in Yangxi County as a case study, this research collects and analyzes data through classroom observations, student questionnaires, and teacher interviews to examine the practical effects and implementation challenges of TBLT in teaching spoken English in primary schools. Potential problems are identified through this empirical investigation, and strategies are proposed to enhance the effective application of TBLT in the teaching of oral English in primary schools while supporting teacher professional development.
