INNOVATIVE APPROACHES IN ELT

The need for alternative methods to be used in language teaching was one of the main push factors to move from traditional approaches to innovative ones. No method alone is able to solve the problems of all students. Rather than adhering to a specific method in classroom teaching, the idea of using a method appropriate for every learning situation and a flexible and rich learning style that does not limit language teaching to the classroom environment should be adopted. In this module, English teachers will explore various innovative approaches they can use in their language classroom.
