Resumen

El objetivo principal de este estudio fue explorar las habilidades de los profesores de inglés como lengua extranjera sobre la enseñanza del habla. Para lograr el objetivo, se empleó una estrategia de investigación secuencial de métodos mixtos. Los participantes fueron profesores de inglés de escuelas secundarias y preparatorias de la Zona de Gurage. Se administró un cuestionario a 192 docentes y se realizó una entrevista a cuatro docentes. Al analizar los datos, se hicieron análisis descriptivos y bivariados para los datos cuantitativos y se utilizó un análisis de contenido cualitativo para los datos cualitativos. Los hallazgos revelaron que hablar no era una habilidad que los maestros disfrutaran enseñar ni los estudiantes aprender. Los profesores consideraban hablar como la parte más débil de sus alumnos. Para la mayoría de los maestros, aprender a hablar era diferente y difícil de aprender comparado con otras habilidades lingüísticas. Además, los profesores consideraron la discusión en grupo como la estrategia más eficaz. A pesar de todos los problemas, el autoconcepto de los docentes era optimista, pero se mostraban pesimistas sobre el interés de los alumnos por aprender a hablar. Se encontró que la mayoría de las creencias de los docentes estaban influenciadas principalmente por experiencias docentes previas. Los maestros expresaron que la enseñanza del habla estaba predominantemente influenciada por factores relacionados con el alumno. El estudio concluye que la enseñanza de la expresión oral sigue siendo una de las áreas desatendidas de la enseñanza del idioma inglés. Con base en los hallazgos, también se recomiendan más investigaciones y capacitación.
