Recitation is one of those tools that has been used in past decades in our country. Especially in international bilingual schools there have been frequently used. And at the academic record of students, these grades were inserted for that course. However after the victory of Revolution and the following of abolition of such schools recitation was out and gradually was forgotten. In this essay by the use of free research we have tried by the citing statics and experiences of some of the students that have studied at that schools and now are teaching foreign languages at colleges or institutes, and also with utilization of this method in French classes of Hakim Sabzevari university, between two groups of students, one by recitation and the other without it, show the undeniable contribution of this tool and emphasize on using this method again as before.
