Description The study investigates   the effects of  pre-task planning time on both  fluency, and accuracy  and fluency of the participants' oral performance. The participants' performance has been transcribed and analyzed. The experimental group was provided with 5 minutes planning time before task performance whereas the control group was given a zero-planning time .As a result  , the experimental group produces accurate language and fluency language input. The results of the study indicated that participants who performed the task under time pressure spoke significantly faster that those who had no time pressure during the task and the Participants with zero – planning time   produced a greater variety of vocabulary than those who planned before the task. The pre –task Planning time reduces  the processing load , helps learners to get goals  and organize the content , reduces  pressure to  speak  freely with self-confidence during the performance  of the oral task , enhances the accuracy of the second language learner' production  , concentrates  more  on form which helps  to improve the accuracy of their second language production , and Planning time helps them to form and edit their oral  production. The findings of the study are beneficial for English teachers , English designers  and  materials development.
