Communicative Language Teaching Approach
The Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach focuses on real-life communication rather than rote memorization. It emphasizes interaction and meaningful communication in the target language. In a TESOL context, this method encourages students to engage in authentic language use, promoting fluency and accuracy simultaneously. ITTT offers specialized courses on CLT to equip teachers with the necessary skills to implement this approach effectively.
