    Product description

    This third edition of Approaches and Methods in Language Teaching surveys the major approaches and methods in language teaching, such as Grammar Translation, Audiolingualism, Communicative Language Teaching and the Natural Approach. It examines each one in terms of its theory of language and language learning, goals, syllabus, teaching activities, teacher and learner roles, materials and classroom techniques. As in previous editions, both major and alternative approaches and methods are surveyed. The book seeks not only to clarify the assumptions behind these approaches, and their similarities and differences, but also to help teachers explore their own beliefs and practices in language teaching.

    Key features

    • Each chapter includes a series of discussion questions to help readers engage with the content.
    • Textbook samples provide examples of how the approaches and methods have been interpreted by materials writers.
