Abstract

This research analyzes the importance of fostering oral proficiency when learning English as a foreign language. In this sense, it is essential to recognize the role of effective communication skills both in academic and professional contexts. The research seeks to address the existing challenges when teaching oral skills, and at the same time, it aims to provide educators with a different approach to be able to apply successful strategies. The methodology includes an extensive review of existing literature on oral proficiency, pedagogical strategies, and assessment techniques to identify best practices and proven methodologies that have been proven successful in fostering oral communication skills among students. In addition to the literature review, this study proposes a deep analysis of the effectiveness of different strategies and assessment techniques to improve oral proficiency. By combining this analysis with real-world application, this research aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on effective English language teaching methodologies, offering educators valuable perceptions and practical tools for enhancing the oral proficiency of language learners.
