| Abstract: |
This paper aimed to discuss the statement "Approaches to language teaching can be characterised as the emphasis on certain design features at the expense of others." Specifically, both grammar-translation method and communicative language teaching method were compared and contrasted. It concluded that no one method is perfect for every teaching situation. For different teaching settings, different methods/methodologies ought to be adopted, ideally, integrated, for they compensate for each other. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
