Developing Speaking through Authentic and Semi-Authentic Audio-visual Resources. For many years, authentic audio-visual materials have been used in the classroom as a complement to English classes, which have allowed learners to be exposed to real English with satisfactory results. Consequently, the teachers’ role is crucial and consistent on selecting the appropriate authentic audio-visual resources, taking into account students’ proficiency, to pair them effectively with the current topic. This research project reports the results obtained in a study that was addressed to investigate whether a guided use of authentic and semi-authentic materials can increase student’s ability to communicate orally while raising cultural awareness attempting to close the gap between regular instruction and native-like English.
