This study analyzed 7th grade students' difficulties with oral and written communication skills at La Betulia Highschool in Colombia. To address these issues, the study implemented an institutional radio station called "STUDENTS' VOICE" to provide opportunities for students to improve their speaking, writing, argumentation, and listening abilities. Surveys of teachers and principals showed unsatisfactory results that needed to be addressed. The radio station served as a complement to academic activities and included programming, local news writing, and script writing. The results demonstrated that the radio station had a positive influence on students' oral and written communication competence by allowing them to freely express ideas, concepts, and emotions.
