Περίληψη:The influence of large classes in the English language teaching-learning process in Ecuadorian high schools is the topic of this study. The intention of this investigation is to know about the instructional, social, and psychological implications that large classes have on the teaching-learning process. For this purpose, a population sample composed by 175 students was selected from ninth and tenth grades of one high school located in Zaruma, El Oro province. The data was gathered by administering one questionnaire to the students, then, the answers were tabulated. A qualitative and quantitative analysis was applied in this research through charts and statistical graphs which represented the results obtained from the students questionnaires, according to the indicators such as very satisfactory, satisfactory, somewhat satisfactory, and unsatisfactory. The results of this study allowed to draw the conclusion that the size of a class has great effects on the learning and teaching process of the English language in Ecuadorian high-schools because learners of numerous classes do not have an adequate provision for language instructional material and social and psychological support, therefore, they suffer a lot learning the four skills in the English language.
