Concept:Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) is a method that focuses on using language for real communication, not just grammar rules.
Explanation:The main goal of language learning is to communicate effectively. CLT makes interaction the core of learning. Learners develop communicative competence. This means they learn to use language for different purposes (e.g., asking, persuading). They also learn to adjust their language based on the situation (formal vs. informal). They practice various text types like conversations, reports, and interviews. Even with limited vocabulary, learners use strategies to keep communication going. In CLT, students talk with each other and the teacher. They share personal experiences and discuss real-life topics. Speaking and listening skills come first, before reading and writing. Textbooks are not the main tool; instead, activities promote active use of language.
Other methods do not focus on communication: Grammar Translation stresses grammar rules and translation. Direct method avoids translation but still focuses on structure and speaking drills. Total Physical Response uses physical movement to respond to commands, not free communication.
