THE PROBLEM

 What is the problem?

The oral production of the English language has become a key component for communication since it is the ability of speech which focuses on communicating the foreign language in a straightforward and successful way. Starting from this outlook, a critical analysis has been produced on how the lack of oral production is affecting the English language speaking.

Where does the problem occur?

In Píllaro – Unidad Educativa Unión Nacional de Periodistas, it is a public institution where the most of students don’t show an effective use of the English language. Also, there is not and interactive and communicative connection among students in the target language and it happens because the teacher doesn’t motivate her students with technological tools, innovative methodologies or simply an attractive lesson planning, thus, affecting the development of the language in them. On the other hand, there are great demands of students as a group in the classrooms; hence, it is impossible to motivate them. The teacher doesn’t prefer to work in a cooperative and collaborative way so students work individually as makes educational process difficult and it’s complicated to assess them. This occurs because of the short period of time that each subject counts on. Finally, the intermittent internet connection on the institution does not allow applying interactive activities in class.

Why do I want to solve this problem?

Daily activities depend upon oral expression, especially in the classroom. Even the most insignificant task cannot be performed without oral expression. Besides, it is a form of interactive spontaneous communication between two or more people. The development of conversational skills in a new language is a frequent focus of language teaching and learning. Therefore, who are efficient in talking achieve more success in academic pursuance, compared to those who remain silent.
