communicative language teaching
Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) is an approach to language education that emphasizes interaction as the primary means of learning. It focuses on teaching students to communicate effectively and fluently in real-life situations, rather than just memorizing grammar rules or vocabulary. Activities often include role-plays, group work, and discussions to encourage students to use the language actively.
In CLT, the teacher acts as a facilitator, guiding students in their learning process. This method values the importance of context and meaning, allowing learners to practice language skills in a way that reflects authentic communication. Overall, CLT aims to develop both linguistic competence and communicative competence.
