Type: article
Abstract: With the continuous advancement of globalization, intercultural communicative competence has become increasingly important in foreign language learning. As a primary tool for international communication, English speaking skills require not only the enhancement of basic language abilities but also the development of intercultural competence. This study, from the perspective of intercultural communication, explores the developmental path of middle school students’ English speaking skills. It focuses on strategies for improvement, including the interaction between language input and cultural background, the cultivation of communication strategies and cultural awareness, and the cultural adaptability of classroom activities and teaching methods. In addition, the article proposes evaluation standards and methods for intercultural competence, and discusses effective feedback mechanisms as well as the interactive promotion of teaching assessment and student self-reflection. Research findings indicate that intercultural communicative competence not only enhances students’ English speaking proficiency but also strengthens their intercultural adaptability and global vision, thereby laying a more solid foundation for future international communication and cooperation.
