Summary/Abstract: In order to develop speaking skills in Romanian, the teacher needs to provide foreign learners not only with linguistic tools, but especially with situations to use them in interactions, and the use of technology can provide contexts for developing speaking skills. Thus, the first part of our article presents the necessity of using software tools in teaching and learning Romanian as a foreign language. The second part has a pragmatic dimension as it explains how Wordwall and Edpuzzle applications can be included in RFL teaching activity. We can say that this part is a guide that aims to convince potential users not only of the ease of creating attractive educational resources, but especially of the impact they have among students. In conclusion, we aim to demonstrate that by integrating software tools into the RFL teaching activity, the teaching process is student-oriented and the educational approach is transparent, interactive. Last but not least, it helps foreign students to improve communicative competence.
