2.       In my opinion the communicative competences is very important to implement in educational Colombian context, with this the students can learn how to speak in real time situations, depending the context, how to describe something, ask something, focus in interaction that could happen in a normal interaction with a foreign person, it´s not only get a focus in the grammar and how to use it, it´s important also but it´s important to combine all.

3.       To answer the importance of this competence for my I want to highlight the importance to make you understand in a conversation in any language, for my it´s important to focus in this communicative competence to help the citizens get the importance in how to use the language depending the context, with this the persons will have a good experience in a real-life situation.

4.       First it´s important to highlight the importance of the competence, the second is explain as a teacher and make understand all students the great help that can be this tool at the moment of produce communication with other persons try use common examples in real context in Colombia to help students get this importance to use their knowledge and apply it in common situations and help the language development.

In my opinion, I believe that communicative competence can be learned in Colombia, but its acquisition depends on several factors. Firstly, individual aptitude and motivation play a crucial role. Some people may have limited exposure to real-life English language contexts due to geographic or socioeconomic limitations. However, with effective teaching methods and activities, students can develop communicative competence. Teachers can create dynamic lessons that focus not only on grammar but also practical communication skills, allowing students to apply their knowledge in social and academic contexts.

That's a big challenge! To teach communicative competence in Colombian schools, we would have to shake up the traditional educational system. There would have to be a review, changes to the curriculum, and a new perspective on foreign language teaching. This means that both current and future teachers would have to design innovative activities and methods. Furthermore, they should motivate students to see English as a useful tool for future communication, not just as an obligation. Furthermore, we need to change teaching methods and propose different strategies that produce real results and alter the way students perceive the language and the learning process.

I think it's very important. Firstly, it helps you communicate in this globalized world. English is spoken everywhere and, if you speak it well, it opens doors in international business, travel and academia. Secondly, it enriches you culturally because you can connect with people from different places. And let's not forget that speaking English allows you to help other people who don't speak Spanish. In short, it allows you to navigate a multicultural world and contribute to your personal and professional growth.

I think there are significant challenges when working with communication skills. Firstly, we must break the limitations of the traditional education system, which often focuses too much on memorization and grammar rather than practical communication skills. This requires a lot of effort and innovation on the part of teachers. Secondly, motivating students to see English as something useful rather than a required subject can be challenging because it involves changing their way of thinking. Finally, creating teaching methods and activities that are effective and produce results while adapting to different learning styles and abilities is a real challenge. Overcoming these challenges is essential to successfully teaching English communication skills to Colombian students.
