The development of oral speech is a core indicator of success in Russian language learning, especially in multilingual educational contexts where learners need functional speaking skills for study, work, and social interaction. This article proposes a communicative-approach methodology for developing pupils’ oral speech in Russian lessons through meaning-focused interaction, task-supported speaking, and systematic feedback that balances fluency with accuracy. The methodology is grounded in the concept of communicative competence, integrates classroom interaction as the primary learning medium, and operationalizes lesson design through staged speaking tasks, scaffolding, and formative assessment. The paper outlines implementation principles, describes a procedure for selecting and sequencing speaking activities, and presents assessment criteria suitable for school practice. The expected outcome is stable growth in learners’ willingness to speak, pragmatic appropriateness, interactional strategies, and linguistic control within real classroom time constraints.
