The article explores the effectiveness of using interdisciplinary content to improve monologic speaking skills in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. It emphasizes how integrating subject matter from various academic disciplines such as science, history, or the arts into language instruction fosters deeper engagement, contextual learning, and improved discourse competence. By linking language development with content-rich topics, the study shows that students become more confident and coherent in delivering extended monologues. The article also highlights pedagogical strategies and classroom practices that support the interdisciplinary approach, including project-based learning, critical thinking tasks, and content-driven discussions. The findings suggest that interdisciplinary teaching not only enhances fluency and vocabulary but also nurtures learners’ ability to organize and express complex ideas in a foreign language.
