    This study investigated the influence of transformational learning on the English language writing skills of third-semester students of Pedagogía de los Idiomas Nacionales Y Extranjeros major at Universidad Técnica de Ambato in Ecuador. The quantitative method and an experimental design were used in 32 students between 18 and 21 years old. The research process began with applying the pre-test, which was taken from the writing section of the PET exam. Then, 8 interventions were carried out in which the lessons were based on transformational learning principles to develop different written production activities. At the end of the interventions, a post-test was administered. Both the pre and post-test were graded according to the Cambridge B1 rubric. Results showed progress in written production, focusing on content, organization, language, and communicative achievement, using transformational learning, which encouraged student freedom and critical thinking. This study concluded that this pedagogy enhances teaching by personalizing assessments to identify strengths and weaknesses, fostering motivation and interactive learning, and supporting students' overall development, improving their ability to communicate ideas effectively in both academic and everyday contexts.
