dc.description.abstractThis research analyzed the influence of the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach on the development of oral production skills among tenth-grade students at a public bilingual school in Ecuador. The problem identified was the students’ limited fluency, accuracy, pronunciation, and interaction in English, which hindered effective communication in class. The main purpose of the study was to determine the extent to which systematic application of communicative tasks could improve these oral skills. The study was conducted within the Ecuadorian context, where English is a compulsory subject, yet traditional, grammar-centered methods still prevail. A mixed-methods pre-experimental design was applied with one group of 30 students who participated in a nine-week intervention based on communicative activities. Data were collected through pre- and post-speaking tests modeled on the B1 Preliminary English Test (PET), student surveys, classroom observations, and teacher field notes. The pedagogical proposal consisted of a structured application of communicative tasks such as role-plays, information-gap activities, picture-based discussions, oral presentations, and collaborative decision-making. This proposal aimed to strengthen communicative competence through meaningful practice and authentic interaction. Results showed overall improvement across all oral production components, along with increased student confidence, participation, and motivation. It was concluded that implementing CLT promotes balanced development of fluency, accuracy, pronunciation, and interaction, even in low-resource contexts. The study highlights that sustained communicative practice, continuous teacher support, and an encouraging classroom environment are essential factors for achieving effective and lasting learning outcomes.
