This study investigates the effect of interdisciplinary integration on the development of monologue speech proficiency in learners of English as a Foreign Language (EFL). It explores how the combination of various subjects such as history, science, and literature into English language instruction enhances learners’ ability to construct and deliver coherent monologues. The research highlights the benefits of a holistic educational approach in improving fluency, vocabulary use, and critical thinking in EFL monologue performance.
