Abstract: Abstract This study aimed to find out the effects of using the Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) approach on the speaking skill of Thai EFL learners at the University of Phayao, and to investigate the learners’ perceptions on the use of TBLT in the classroom. A group of 36 first year students, majoring in English and Education, who enrolled in the university’s English for Communication Course, were purposively chosen to participate in this study. Data were collected through pre-and post-speaking tests, questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The quantitative data was analyzed with the use of a descriptive statistical tool and dependent t - test, and content analysis was used to analyze the qualitative data. The results showed that the participants had significantly improved their speaking performance after being exposed to TBLT, with a significant level of .01. Moreover, the results revealed that the respondents generally perceived the use of TBLT in the classroom positively. This study suggests that TBLT was not only effective in enhancing Thai EFL learner’s speaking skill, but it could be beneficial for them, as EFL learners, despite a few challenges they encountered.
