c. Role-Play
The role-play exercises help in developing confidence and refining the
skills, thus making an individual more extrovert. This is one of the best
exercises for teens that need to have good command over their oral
communication skills. The trainer needs to give a situation to a group of four
to five people. The situations can be teleconferencing, dealing with a difficult
client, selling a product, etc. Where the actors need to interact and apply verbal
communication techniques to communicate effectively.
Improving
the 
students’ 
ability 
in 
communicative 
activities
by giving them some interesting topics will avoid them in feeling bored. The
writer agrees with role play activity because in role play the students can
improve their critical thinking in improving the situation that the teacher gives,
after understanding the situation they can improve their oral skill based on
their understanding without limitation from the teacher. So, role play is much
more effective in increasing the students’ oral skill.
2. Communicative activities in written skill.
Some of students like writing anything about their life, but some of them
do not like writing, so the teacher should give an appropriate method to increase
the students’ ability. Below is one of activity that can increase the students’
written skill.
a. Diary Writing
A written skill to communicate too has an equal role to play. A teenager
good at oral communication, but below average in written may face failures in
many stages. To improve this aspect of communication, diary writing can be
one of the most effective activities that would improve upon the written skill
as well. There are no rules to write in a diary, they just need to jot down what
he feels about the day. Diary writing should be inculcated in daily life.
