Summary/Abstract: This article aims to analyze some of the most important challenges presented by discursive markers in the field o f teaching Spanish as a FL, taking into account the importance of collaborative learning and new didactic tools such as ICT. Based on the results of a telecollaborative activity between the Spanish language learners and the native speakers, a concrete didactic proposal is offered that aims to meet the communication needs of the E / LE learners when they participate in a spontaneous conversation. Opting for the flipped class method and blended learning, we offer video-based instructional material with authentic oral input and metapragmatic information, as well as opportunities for oral interaction with native Spanish speakers in an international telecollaborative context.
