This study analyzes corrective feedback practices implemented by three teachers of conversational courses in oral production skills carried out in a classroom setting. It was conducted in the Centro de Estudios en Inglés Conversacional (CEIC), outreach program at the Universidad Nacional, Alajuela Site, in the fourth bimester in 2014 with three different proficiency level groups: beginner, intermediate, and advanced conversational English as a Foreign Language students. Throughout the study, students developed a series of oral production activities; in these activities the mistakes made, the correction techniques implemented, the type of activity in which students participated, and the responses after providing feedback were recorded. To collect the necessary information, several data collection methods such as participant observation, surveys with students, and questionnaires with teachers were administered.
