The current quasi-experimental quantitative study aimed to find out how interactive tasks could impact the Iranian EFL students’ self-monitoring, self-regulation, and willingness to communicate in a classroom setting. The study utilized there questionnaires, self-monitoring scale (SMS), self-regulated language learning scale (SRLLS), and willingness to communicate (WTC), to assess changes in interactive scores of 40 students in an experimental group with the interactive scores of 40 students in a control group. The results of this study, using the independent sample t-test, clearly revealed that the students with the interactive tasks mainly outperformed those with the regular instruction. In more, the study proposed that the interactive tasks were effective to improve the students’ achievement as well as alleviate and increase their performance through utilizing interactional competence. The findings of the research also indicated that the students were in an attempt to be the more adaptive and engaged learners which would be contributed to their learning. However, applying teaching methods should address interactive activities in an effective and meaningful way in a non-threatening environment in the classroom to increase engagement in the language classroom alongside the improvement of the students’ confidence and enhancing learning.
