This journal discussing about approach how to make the student improving their speaking ability. Speaking is the most important skill of language. Speaking a language is especially difficult for foreign language learners because effective oral communication requires the ability to use the language appropriately in social interactions, and in suitable context and situation. As a matter of fact, most of the learners consider speaking as an important ability to have which is useful in different situation. The present study aims at implementing the content-based approach in a student-centered environment with Iranian intermediate EFL learners to help them to have interaction with a realistic task such as panel discussion for better improvement of the speaking skill. It will be very beneficial for EFL teachers to widen their view on the new methods of teaching and considering the roles assumed to both parts as it really deserves and yields better learning outcomes.

Some were high school students and some were university students of Payam Noor, Tehran Branch. Moreover, some were other people with different jobs. Almost all the researchers in the field of TEFL believe that student centered classes in content-based approach show good outcomes in practice, although much of these researchers believe in this method of teaching model in the English classes.

This paper discuss about the student that learning English language and their errors, this paper try to observe The Relationship between English Language Learners’ Perceptions towards Classroom Oral Error Corrections and Their Pronunciation Accuracy. As we know that English is become international language that is used in technology sectors, education, business and internet. We, also, know that it is not possible for most English language learners to acquire or learn English in real situations. As a result, they go to language schools and try to learn English through being taught in unreal situations or atmospheres. In this study, in order to get participants’ perceptions about classroom oral correction, an adopted and adapted questionnaire was used. The original questionnaire was developed in English after extensive literature review, and it was used by Katayama (2007). The questionnaire contains four sections. The first section contained demographic information. The second section addressed Research Question 1 and asked the participants’ general opinions about the correction of oral errors in the classroom. This section contained four statements illustrating certain views that have been controversial among language researchers and educators for decades, After giving the perception questionnaires and pronunciation tests to the participants and marking them, frequency distribution was calculated to find out how many participants got more than 3, how many less than 3, and how many 3 on the perception questionnaire test, which showed most of the participants got more than 3, which meant participants’ positive attitudes towards classroom oral error corrections. Language learners’ attitudes about classroom oral error corrections, the effect of gender on their attitudes, and the relationship between their attitudes towards classroom oral error corrections and their pronunciation accuracy were the subjects studied in this paper.

This paper discussing about how the way to predicting the new tv series rating from their script. Specifically, we refer to three recent studies that explain variation in box office revenues using only variables that are known during the pre-production stages. In order to investigate the aforementioned hypothesis, data were collected on the total number of viewers of new prime-time, hour-long television series debuting during six recently-completed broadcast seasons, the researcher identified a total of 136 new, hour-long, dramatic series that debuted in prime-time as part of the 2009-2014 television seasons. Six of these shows were eliminated from consideration because they were (co-)produced with or produced by foreign television networks and debuted in those countries before being seen on US network  television. The results presented strongly support our hypothesis that there should be a positive and significant relationship between the size of the text network of the pilot episode of a new series and the size of the initial audience of the series. Secondly, while our model does explain a high proportion of the variance in initial audience size, we should make clear the distinction between explaining variance with a model constructed from a sample of shows from the past and using that model to predict the audience size of shows currently appearing on network television.
