Task repetition is now considered as an important task-based implementation variable which can affect complexity, accuracy, and fluency of L۲ speech. However, in order to move towards theorizing the role of task repetition in second language acquisition, it is necessary that individual variables be taken into account. The present study aimed to investigate the way task repetition correlates with language proficiency and the differential effects that task repetition might have on the complexity, accuracy, and fluency of L۲ learners with different levels of proficiency. Fifty language learners of different levels of proficiency, selected from two different language centers, participated in this study. They were asked to perform an oral narrative task twice with a one-week interval. Results revealed that, compared to the participants with lower L۲ proficiency, participants with higher levels of L۲ proficiency produced more complex, accurate, and fluent speech on the second encounter with the same task.
