English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students often struggle to deliver oral presentations due to a lack of reliable resources and the limited effectiveness of instructors' feedback. Large Language Model (LLM) can offer new possibilities to assist students' oral presentations with real-time feedback. This paper investigates how ChatGPT can be effectively integrated into EFL oral presentation practice to provide personalized feedback. We introduce a novel learning platform, CHOP (ChatGPT-based interactive platform for oral presentation practice), and evaluate its effectiveness with 13 EFL students. By collecting student-ChatGPT interaction data and expert assessments of the feedback quality, we identify the platform's strengths and weaknesses. We also analyze learners' perceptions and key design factors. Based on these insights, we suggest further development opportunities and design improvements for the education community.
