Resumen
Higher education is experiencing important changes with the aim of moving from the traditional methodologies and attaining better learning outcomes. This study is intended to analyze the effect of learner-centered instruction on the development of the speaking skill in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. In order to do this research, google scholar, Harzing ´s publish or perish, scopus, ScienceDirect, books and other academic journals were explored. As a result of this search, more than 900 papers were found. This information served to interrelate learner-centered principles to the development of the speaking skill so that learners can communicate in English in various contexts worldwide. From the analysis, it was concluded that learner-centered instruction was an approach that developed the speaking skill through the realization of meaningful and authentic tasks.
