Abstract
The main purpose of this study is to present role-playing techniques as a means to promote oral expression in eighth, ninth and tenth grade students in a public school in Cañar-Ecuador. This research demonstrates the advantages of using the role-playing technique to improve oral expression skills, as well as the student's perceptions about its use. Both quantitative and qualitative instruments were applied. The researcher employed pre- and post-tests, surveys, classroom observations, and a teacher diary to collect data. The pre- and post-tests were scored using a speech assessment rubric, which assessed students' grammar, vocabulary, fluency, pronunciation, and comprehension. Findings revealed that students enjoyed the role-play exercises and were motivated to perform dialogues in English.
