Abstract

English is regarded as a primary language for communication purposes worldwide. Therefore, using it has become a global need. The present work aims to support that in the field of education - higher level - the mastering of certain communicative competences in the professional profile of the teachers of that specific area should be favored, so that the teaching process they perform generates significant learning outcomes for students and that they, in turn, can access the advantages of English speaking. At the methodological level, 142 teachers of the English area from northern Ecuador were surveyed. In addition, a panel of experts was held to endorse the competences mentioned. This work has a substantive value of usefulness for the educational, didactic and curricular development of communication in English, since the successful communication of all the speakers who attend permanently classes in this foreign language will depend to a great extent on the rigor that teachers possess.
