Two practical methods—“Letter to a Friend” and “Pen on the Table”—are introduced as engaging strategies to improve vocabulary, teamwork, critical thinking, and communication skills. Furthermore, the article advocates for digital integration by connecting students with global peers through language exchange platforms, enhancing fluency and intercultural competence. The overall aim is to equip learners with meaningful language experiences that are interactive, culturally enriched, and aligned with global standards.
