Summary/Abstract: Last two decades have seen significant advances in research into oral interaction in the language classroom. Based on an increasingly better understanding of the role of input, interaction and linguistic production, contemporary SLA recommends the implementation of pair or group work during which learners have the opportunity to use their linguistic resources as authentically and productively as possible. Oral interaction denotes verbal behaviour between the teacher and their learners and between the learners. Classroom interaction may be seen not only as a language exercise, but can significantly contribute to language acquisition. This article discusses how foreign language teachers can control the conditions in which students perform oral interaction tasks in order to improve language acquisition.
