The purpose of this study was to examine the perceptions of students towards Gallery Walk and
how Gallery Walk can be used as a tool to enhance students’ speaking skills. The research
methodology integrated the Convergent Parallel Mixed Methods Design. This study involved an
Intact Group which consisted of 16 Perlis Matriculation College students. The instruments
employed in this study were questionnaires and focused group interviews. Descriptive data
analysis was utilized to analyse the data collected using questionnaires. The researchers also
collected data from the participants by utilizing focused group interviews. Findings from the
study showed that majority of the participants had positive perceptions towards the use of
Gallery Walk in enhancing their speaking skills. Gallery Walk activity also incorporated the use
of ICT as a way to promote quality education, i.e. Sustainable Development Goal (Goal: 4).
Through Gallery Walk, students’ confidence to speak English was also heightened as they
actively involved by exchanging responses while completing the task assigned to them.
Therefore, the findings of the study are hoped to provide insights for academicians to integrate
the strategy of using Gallery Walk in ESL speaking classes to enhance students’ speaking skills.
