Approaches and Methods in Language
Teaching
- The Direct Method
- In this method the teaching is done entirely
in the target language. The learner is not
allowed to use his or her mother tongue.
Grammar rules are avoided and there is
emphasis on good pronunciation

- Grammar-translation
- Learning is largely by translation to and
from the target language. Grammar rules
are to be memorized and long lists of
vocabulary learned by heart. There is little
or no emphasis placed on developing oral
ability

- Audio-lingual
- The theory behind this method is that learning a language
means acquiring habits. There is much practice of dialogues
of every situations. New language is first heard and
extensively drilled before being seen in its written form.

- The structural approach
- This method sees language as a complex of grammatical rules which are to be learned one
at a time in a set order. So for example the verb "to be" is introduced and practised before
the present continuous tense which uses "to be" as an auxiliary.

- Suggestopedia
- The theory underlying this method is that a
language can be acquired only when the learner
is receptive and has no mental blocks. By various
methods it is suggested to the student that the
language is easy - and in this way the mental
blocks to learning are removed

- Total Physical Response (TPR)
- TPR works by having the learner respond to simple commands
such as "Stand up", "Close your book", "Go to the window and
open it." The method stresses the importance of aural
comprehension.

- The Silent Way
- This is so called because the aim of the teacher is to say as little as possible in
order that the learner can be in control of what he wants to say. No use is made
of the mother tongue.
