Beschreibung:	This study aimed to investigate whether the use of peer feedback improves the students' speaking. It was a quantitative research study with a quasi-experimental design with the participation of forty learners from the third year of high school. The target population was divided into two groups: the control and the experimental group. The students' level of speaking performance at the beginning and the end of this research was assessed through the A2 KET (for schools), speaking part, as the pre-test and post-test. This instrument had a rubric. In the beginning, a low level of students' English-speaking skill was evidenced since they used simple grammar structures with isolated vocabulary; their pronunciation was intelligible but needed rehearsal; and they managed a simple conversation but with lots of teacher support. For this reason, the participants were engaged in peer feedback practices. They were implemented in a proposal containing classroom sessions based on the curriculum for the third year of baccalaureate and according to student's needs and preferences to be implemented during an intervention process. Students practiced in debates, oral presentations, and classroom discussions in pairs and small groups during class. They were motivated and practiced their natural oral speech. It helped them to show encouragement and a supportive classroom environment. After the implementation process, learners took the post-test, and these data were statistically analyzed. A significant difference appeared after the comparison of means with 95% confidence. Therefore, it was concluded that the use of peer feedback is beneficial to improve students' speaking skills, and it is highly recommended that it could be applied to their development, contributing in this way to high school education.
