The drilling technique is a traditional method that is rarely used by the teacher for both the teaching and learning process today. However, it turns out that the drilling technique is still used in primary schools in Uzbekistan. To gather background information related to the study, the researchers conduct an initial interview with the teacher. According to a preliminary interview, almost all teachers used the drilling method for teaching English lessons in primary schools. The study of drilling at primary school level is essential for building foundational skills, improving memory retention, boosting confidence, enhancing speed and accuracy, and fostering discipline and perseverance . These benefits contribute to the overall educational development of students and prepare them for future academic challenges.
