Data collection techniques were a survey and a pre-test and post-test with their respective questionnaires. The survey was employed to identify the most used learning strategies to enhance the speaking skill whose questions were taken from the Students Inventory Language Learning methodology. It was shared among students through Google forms whose responses were obtained online. In addition, the speaking subskills, were theoretically analyzed. Furthermore, students’ speaking skill at the beginning and at the end of the treatment were assessed. It was the speaking part of the A2 Key for Schools Test from Cambridge. To obtain numerical data, the assessment for speaking skill from Cambridge Assessment was employed which had three main criteria such as grammar and vocabulary, pronunciation, and interactive communication. Main findings from the survey were the most common students’ learning strategies namely cognitive, metacognitive, affective, and social. The pre-test revealed that the students from both the control and the experimental groups have low level of speaking performance. Based on those results, a series of class plans were xii designed with the purpose of enhancing students’ speaking skill by strengthening language learning strategies. The class plans were designed for eight weeks of intervention. After this phase, the students took the post-test. It was concluded that the application of learning strategies is valuable to improve speaking skill. Therefore, it is highly recommended to apply them to support students in their language learning process.

En la actualidad es importante destacar que los medios digitales, materiales multimedia, tienen un rol preponderante en el Proceso de Enseñanza Aprendizaje, los mismos que facilitarán la tarea docente, para alcanzar el objetivo primordial es decir lograr que el estudiante no solamente se apropie de conocimientos importantes y actualizados que brindan las NTIC´s al respecto de información sobre Técnicas y Actividades que se desarrollan en el salón de clase, es necesario destacar igualmente que a través de éste material didáctico se logrará desarrollar en el estudiante una actitud crítica y de auto aprendizaje. El Material Multimedia contiene información actualizada, además de que cuenta con una interfaz atractiva al usuario permitiendo que el estudiante pueda interactuar con mayor interés, esto lógicamente permitirá que tanto el docente como el estudiante a través de la autoevaluación logren alcanzar un mayor rendimiento. Las NTIC´s permiten que las clases sean más interactivas, actualizadas y a la vez motiven al estudiante en la construcción de su propio conocimiento y a la vez se logre en la práctica el desarrollo de las destrezas que requiere el alumno para tener un mejor desenvolvimiento estudiantil y por qué no en el campo laboral. El fácil uso del Material Multimedia permitirá además del auto aprendizaje del estudiante, reducir el tiempo del aprendizaje significativo no solamente en el aula, el cual deberá aprovecharse para la aplicación de las técnicas descritas en el programa, en la práctica y en evaluaciones.
