Abstract

English language proficiency is a key requirement for academic and professional success in Malaysia, especially among undergraduate students navigating an increasingly globalized and digitally connected world. Despite widespread recognition of its importance, many Malaysian undergraduates continue to face challenges in acquiring effective English communication skills, particularly in speaking and listening. Traditional classroom approaches often emphasize grammar and rote learning, resulting in low student engagement, limited oral practice, and language anxiety. These limitations underscore the need for innovative, interactive, and learner-centered approaches to language instruction.
