En este artículo se propone un acercamiento didáctico a la enseñanza del Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto (PPC) en contextos de español como lengua extranjera. Se analizan algunos problemas de la visión tradicional sobre el tema y se plantea que el concepto de referencia genérica propuesto en Henderson (2010) da una respuesta más coherente a usos que la bibliografía suele adjudicar un carácter panhispánico. Se propone un acercamiento didáctico que cambie la tradicional perspectiva didáctica del PPC “peninsular contra americano” para pasar a hablar de dos modalidades de selección del PPC, a las cuales se adscriben en mayor o menor medida los dialectos del español. Con la intención de vigorizar el diálogo entre la investigación específica en el campo del PPC y la lingüística aplicada, la propuesta se apoya en evidencia ya publicada en obras anteriores, así como también ejemplos nuevos del registro oral. Siguiendo la propuesta de Long (1991) de Foco en la forma, se sugiere que la exposición explícita de los parámetros que utilizan estas dos modalidades aumentará la prominencia del fenómeno en la conciencia del aprendiente, lo que, en última instancia, influirá en el conocimiento a largo plazo.
