This work discusses the effect of Out-of-Class Language Learning (OCLL) in Communicative Competence in English within an EFL program with a group of native-Spanish students from Colombia (N=70) distributed in two groups. The experimental group attended an English instruction program based on OCLL, while participants in the control group attended the same EFL syllabus but inside the classroom. To measure the participants’ performance, a pre-test and a post-test were administered to both groups. Results revealed that there were evident differences between both groups in the post-test performance in favor of the treatment group.
