The acquisition of oral competence in learning English lies in the difficulty of a series of complex skills that go beyond the mere memorization of vocabulary and grammar. Students must be able to understand and process the language in real-time, improvise responses, maintain fluency, pronounce, develop security and confidence when expressing themselves orally. These challenges are exacerbated by factors such as limited exposure to English outside the classroom, anxiety, and lack of opportunities to practice oral communication in a meaningful and contextualized way. This research aims to analyze the impact of the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) on the development of oral competence within the teaching-learning process of the English language. The study was conducted with third-year English major students of different learning levels and employed a mixed approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods, as well as conducting surveys, interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations related to the use of ICT. The results show that the use of new educational multimedia applications has been effective in improving English phonetics and pronunciation, and the teachers reported greater student motivation and participation in oral activities. Based on the findings, it is concluded that the integration of ICT has a positive impact on the development of students' oral competence, due to the interactive, dynamic, and motivating nature of technological tools, which allow them to practice and improve their communication skills more effectively.
