Bom dia.
Como posso traduzir "Expressão Oral" para o Inglês? É o nome da disciplina que faz parte da cadeira de Português nas universidades, em conjunto com Redação, Gramática e outras.
Minha tentativa até o momento é "Oral Skills"; está correta dentro deste contexto?
Obrigado.

Verbal Communication
This would work best in this context, I believe. You would definitely want to avoid "oral skills" in this context......
Boa sorte.

As a descriptor of skills within either an academic or vocational context , I think you will find "Written Communication" and "Verbal Communication" used more frequently than any of their possible synonymous counterparts, including those suggested here thus far.

Christina Paiva
: Again - RH: VERBAL has had the meaning “spoken” since the late 16th century and is thus synonymous with oral. Slightly earlier, VERBAL had developed the meaning “expressed in words, whether spoken or or written (as opposed to actions)”.
