It aims at investigating and examining the effectiveness of teachers' feedback as a pedagogical strategy on improving students speaking accuracy.

In order to achieve the aim of the undertaken study, answer the research questions and confirm the effectiveness of feedback, two means of research are utilized: a teachers’ questionnaire and an experiment. The former, the teachers’ questionnaire, aims at exploring teachers’ views towards the use of feedback to increase accuracy in speaking. The latter, the students’ test, is adopted to experiment the significance of teachers’ feedback on the development of both pronunciation and grammar correctness. The results of the used tools have confirmed the hypothesis and have illustrated the efficiency of learners’ feedback on the improvement of accuracy in speaking.
