    Verbal Linguistics Intelligence and Speaking Skill
    (Carrera de Pedagogìa de los Idiomas Nacionales y Extranjeros, 2022-04-01) Vargas Pérez, Rebeca Alexandra; Parra Gavilánez, Lorena Fernanda
    The research problem establishes the limited awareness of verbal-linguistic intelligence to develop speech skills; the research objective is to analyze the influence of verbal-linguistic intelligence on speech development in the third semester of the career "Pedagogy of National Languages and Foreigners" of the Technical University of Ambato. The study methodology is quasi-experimental, with a quantitative approach. The sample was represented by 37 students of the third semester of "Pedagogía de los Idiomas Nacionales y Extranjeros" of the Universidad Técnica de Ambato. A survey was used to identify the students' opinions and perceptions about verbal-linguistic intelligence and the ability to speak. The verbal-linguistic intelligence activities were applied with work sessions in three weeks, twice a week. The pretest and posttest were used to obtain the data based on the Cambridge Criteria. The pretest results establish that the students got a medium-low level in evaluating grammar and vocabulary, discourse management, pronunciation, and interactive communication skills. On the other hand, students present a medium level in the posttest, which shows improvements with the application of the activities. Also, the survey shows that most students agree that verbal-linguistic intelligence favors speech development. To conclude, verbal-linguistic intelligence activities influence the ability to communicate, pronounce words more appropriately, and understand grammar and vocabulary to facilitate understanding of the English language.
