Communication, and specifically oral communication in English, has become a worldwide necessity due to the fact that this language has become a lingua franca. It is therefore necessary to carry out research on its teaching and learning. This paper presents the creation of a learning community as a way to enhance oral communication because through negotiation in a community it is possible to promote stimulating and meaningful learning situations; redistribute the participation of the teacher and students in the planning, development and evaluation of the teaching-learning process of oral communication in English; promote relationships of common values, generate a knowing-how-to-be, a knowing-how-to-do and a knowing-how-to-live-together in solidarity and responsibly.
