The implementation of the second generation curriculum of English as a foreign language in the Algerian context –at the level of middle school- had very promising objectives in terms of emphasising values, competencies and adopting a communicative teaching approach. One of the main objectives of the curriculum, as stated by the Algerian Ministry of Education, is to enhance learners’ communicative and conversational skills. Thus, drawing on the importance of interpersonal communication, this paper aims at examining the effectiveness of the second generation curriculum on the learners’ interpersonal skills. In this respect, a quantitative approach was used to investigate the issue among 30 middle school learners studying in the third grade through an Interpersonal Communication Skills Inventory that focuses on 4 key communication areas; sending clear messages, active listening, giving and receiving feedback and handling emotional interactions). The results obtained from the collected data revealed that learners’ interpersonal level of communication is low and in need for improvement. In the light of the results, some recommendations are suggested to enhance learners’ interpersonal skills.
