Nineteen students in their eighth year of Basic Education at Cornelio Crespo Toral School participated in this study for fifteen months. Data is collected from a pre-test, a post-test, and a questionnaire. The results show the improvement of students’ language learning skills by 24.04%. At the end of the study, the participants developed a sense of motivation, and awareness, and increased their language learning skills through the application of the Task- Based Learning worksheets. Teachers recognized the effectiveness of new strategies and techniques implemented in their classes by applying
