The study focused on four key categories of teacher talk: Managerial, Material, Skill and System, and Classroom Context Talk. Research indicates that managerial talk efficiently organizes classroom activities and illustrates organizational communication standards, while material talk contextualizes learning goals, connecting theory to practical applications. Skill and system discussions provide clear language training and constructive feedback, enhancing communication competence and confidence. Classroom context talk promotes critical thinking and introspective engagement, connecting theoretical knowledge with actual professional contexts. The synthesis of data and discussion emphasizes the dynamic interaction of these categories in fostering students’ interaction and preparedness for professional communication issues. This study provides significant insights for teachers seeking to enhance instructional practices in higher education, highlighting the essential role of teacher discourse in equipping students for proficient communication in professional environments.]]>
