El objetivo de este artículo ha sido demostrar la incidencia del uso de WhatsApp en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje del uso real del inglés, para potenciar el desarrollo de la competencia comunicativa, interactiva e intercultural, desde el contexto sociocultural en que aprenden los estudiantes del 5to curso de la carrera Educación de Lenguas Extranjeras de la Universidad de Pinar del Río &#8220;Hermanos Saiz Montes de Oca&#8221;. Cuba. Se obtienen resultados en el desarrollo de habilidades metacomunicativas y metalingüísticas. Igualmente, facilita la transmisión cultural entre los estudiantes al mismo tiempo que los ayuda a sobreponerse a sus miedos referidos al uso de la lengua en la comunicación social, logra la motivación en los estudiantes en el aprendizaje de lenguas desde la psicología del éxito y constituye una alternativa en la enseñanza de lengua en la modalidad no presencial a distancia. Sin embargo, la participación de algunos estudiantes se mantiene baja, capítulo pendiente para futuras investigaciones.]]></p></abstract>
