| Abstract | This paper reports the findings of the reciprocal peer tutoring strategy applied with thirty-four tenth graders in a public school in Tunja, Boyacá. Though at the very beginning of the study these students did not seem to be neither interested in nor aware of the benefits that speaking English has, the participants changed their attitudes forward English as they worked with a partner to improve their learning and to develop their autonomous learning as well. The interaction generated demonstrated that students not only worked with another person, who was not close to them, to achieve the academic goals, but also to gain social skills to realize the way they had to treat someone else making use of their values (respect, understanding, patience, etc.) and to be more aware of the other’s existence for asking help and supporting their needs. These individual goals were gathered in one main achievement which was to reinforce the identity of the group. |
