This study examines the effectiveness of the 2R2D (Reading, Reflection, Discussion, and Discussion) method in teaching Persian in religious schools in Uzbekistan. Since Persian is an important language in Islamic theology, improving students’ Persian language skills is essential for understanding religious texts. The 2R2D method combines active reading, critical thinking, collaborative discussion, and structured discussions to develop language comprehension, critical thinking, and theological discussion skills. The study uses mixed methods, including classroom observations, tests, and student feedback to assess the impact of the method. Preliminary results indicate that the 2R2D method improves Persian language acquisition while increasing students’ engagement in religious content.

The acquisition of English speaking proficiency represents a multidimensional cognitive-linguistic process, wherein fluency, accuracy, and pragmatic appropriateness converge as core parameters. This paper delineates the intrinsic features underpinning the development of oral communicative competence, with emphasis on psycholinguistic mechanisms, contextual variability, and interactional dynamics. Anchored in contemporary pedagogical paradigms, including Communicative Language Teaching and Task-Based Instruction, the study critically evaluates methodological trajectories and their efficacy in fostering productive speech performance. Particular attention is given to extralinguistic impediments—such as affective filters and intercultural interference—that constrain oral output. The analysis concludes by offering evidence-based pedagogical insights aimed at optimizing the speaking skill acquisition process in ESL contexts.
