Summary/Abstract: The subject of this study is a report on the oral output of the learners which turns out to be problematic. Indeed, the oral production is associated with an explanatory monologue or an exchange where each speaker takes on the role of a debater. The presentation required during oral production courses at the Institute of Applied Linguistics at the University of Warsaw aims to prepare learners to handle French as a Foreign Language (FFL) like a native. This is a long-term project, but given the results of this pilot study, we are optimistic. In this text, we first establish our point of view on evaluation. Then, in the body of the text, we describe the methodology as well as the study in question, which was carried out at the ILA in Warsaw and at the Institute of Neophilology at the University of Białystok in parallel. At the end, we present our results and remarks.
