    The natural approach aims to teach language acquisition by modeling it after a child's native language development, supporting the idea that adults can learn a second language like children learn their first. It emphasizes that a foreign language is best learned through communication, as native language is acquired through public use. While the key principles of the natural approach are a natural acquisition period and communication, applying its techniques may be difficult in a homogeneous classroom without native speakers.

    NATURAL APPROACH

    What I learnt is that natural approach is a system which aims teaching language
    by taking an example from the period of native language acqusition. Namely,the
    approach supports the dialect that adults can learn a second or foreign language as
    children acquise their native language. Native language acqusition is defined as
    foreign language learning.
    What I had diffeculty in understanding is that foreign language is best learnt
    when L2 is used for communication. I think someone whom L2 rings about nothing
    can not take any role in a communication.
    What I need to study more is that use of four tecnique in NA. Native language is
    mostly acqused in public. Now If I have to apply this approach to a homogenious
    classroom, I will really have troubles to use a tecnique.
    To sum up my reflection,momentously underlined points in Natural approach are
    natural period and communication. To communicate in L2 is the most important
    principle of teaching language. According to the approach, foreign language acqusition
    must be done through out a natural period as native language acqusition is done. For
    that reason,some one learning a foreign language should frequently participate in
    dialogs with native speakers.
