dc.description.abstractAt the initial levels of English language learning, pronunciation is one of the greatest challenges faced by students due to limitations on individual practice and improvement as well as traditional teaching-learning models. In this sense, the present research aims to investigate the effectiveness of Duolingo as a digital tool to improve the pronunciation skills of A1 students, with a focus on interactive exercises and gamified learning environment of the application. For this purpose, a methodology with a mixed approach, quasi-experimental design, was used, applying the survey techniques, pretest and postest to 27 students who are studying the level A1 of English in the period 2024-2025 of the University of Cuenca. The results showed that after the implementation of the Duolingo application, the average score went from 7.72 to 9.13, indicating that the application produced a significant improvement in the pronunciation of the students participating in the study.
