This study examines the effectiveness of collaborative learning, the mirror method, classroom games, and debates in improving communication skills. After one month, collaborative learning showed the highest impact (40%), followed by
the mirror method (30%), while classroom games and debates had lower effectiveness (20% and 10%). The findings highlight the role of peer interaction in enhancing fluency and confidence, while self-reflection and classroom activities had limited impact. The
study suggests that interactive, peer-driven methods are most effective for communication development.
