With the increasing integration of technology in foreign language instruction, video-mediated communication (VMC) has gained prominence as a means of delivering online education and improving speaking skills. This study systematically reviews research articles concentrating on the use of VMC in English language speaking practice. Based on predetermined inclusion criteria, thirty articles were included from three electronic databases. The selected articles published in the last ten years were analyzed, focusing on their publication trends, identifying commonly used VMC modes and tools, as well as their technical affordances and limitations. By qualitatively synthesizing the main implications of existing research, this systematic review also provides insights into the role of synchronous or asynchronous VMC tools in improving the speaking proficiency of English language learners. The findings revealed that the integration of VMC tools in-class activities or beyond classroom tasks is beneficial for foreign or second language speaking practice.
