In English language education in junior and senior high school, we verified the effects of Blended Instruction utilizing WBT courseware on the students' oral reading skill and speaking skill. Blended Instruction in this study means the combination of three learning parts "inside" the classroom: the individual learning parts in which students practice acting the model dialogues in WBT courseware at their own pace, collaborative learning part in which the students perform the dialogues in pairs and assess their performance each other, and a teacher's scaffoldings part. The result of the research shows that the students' oral reading skill was improved in most criteria of assessment. The content and accuracy of their speech were also improved. And the students' listening ability had a tendency of being improved. The students' comprehension of English class was improved.
