Abstract

The study entitled “The Influence of Oral Communication to the Learning Engagement of the Students” aims to determine the significant influence of oral communication on the learning engagement of students in English. The researchers conducted a survey using a descriptive-correlational research design. The data were gathered from a sample size of 197 respondents using the validated modified questionnaire. The researchers interpreted the data using statistical tools such as Mean, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation and Simple Linear Regression. According to the findings, the level of oral communication of the students is good. The result indicated that oral communication significantly influenced the student's learning engagement. Furthermore, it showed that oral communication for the students should be interactive to boost their learning engagement. The researchers emphasized the need for future researchers to conduct other researches using learning engagement topics not included in the current study.
