Role play equips learners to handle the unpredictable nature of real-life communication. It provides a context for language use that fosters spontaneity, recovery strategies, appropriate tone, and linguistic creativity simultaneously thereby encouraging students to engage in higher-order thinking. By offering tangible proof of their language success, role play builds confidence in a low-risk setting. After all, isn’t encouraging students to experiment with language exactly what we aim to achieve?
