Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the outcome of role play as an approach in developing the communicative competence of freshmen. Moreover, the focus of this study was on how the role-play as an approach was conducted; hence, necessary enhancement should be offered if needed. The information were gathered through Focused Group Discussion (FGD). Guide questions were prepared and validated; interviews were recorded, transcribed, interpreted and analyzed. Results revealed that role play as a type of communicative activity was a valuable classroom approach to assist students in developing their communicative competence and to provide the students an opportunity to practice the English language with fluency and accuracy. It was also discovered that role play was beneficial in developing students’ communicative competence provided that it was not done too long. It encouraged students to express themselves; provided self-confidence and opportunity for practicing the rules of social behavior; and allowed learners to use their learned language.
