Summary/Abstract: Together with passive receptive skills, oral communication remains a vital competence in the academic evolution of a student. The acquisition of this skill in the case of foreign students learning Romanian in the preparatory year is a real challenge. This happens because of the heterogeneity of the students, who do not share the same support or native language and of the students’ need to use this skill as fast as they can in a new social, economic and cultural environment. The present paper intends to focus on some activities that helped the students to improve their oral communication as well as on the difficulties they met during the pandemic academic year 2019-2020.
