In today presentation, we will be talking about some
of the major trends in language teaching.
Audio Lingual
Method

Background information of
this method
The entry of the United
states into World War II
prompted the need for need
ways of teaching oral skills
in foreign languages .
The USA government
required personal who were
fluent in several languages
There was a growing
demand for foreign
expertise in the teaching of
English.
Charlies fries director of the
English Language Institute
of the University of
Michigan is considered the
proponent of this method .
The need for a radical change
and rethinking of foreign
language in the United States.
The combination of structural
linguistic theory, aural oral
procedures and behaviorist
led to this method.

shape the methodological practices of
this method:

Foreign language learning is basically a process of mechanical habit

formation

Language skills are learned more effectively if the items to be learned

in the target language are presented in spoken form before they are

Analogy provides a better foundation for language learning than
analysis.

The meanings that the words of a language have for a native

speaker can be learned only in a linguistic and cultural context.

Role of the student

Students are imitators of the

teacher’s model.

They follow the teacher’s directions

and respond as accurately and as
rapidly as possible.

Role of the teacher

The teacher is like an orchestra leader,

directing and controlling the language
behavior of her students.

The teacher is also responsible for

providing her students with a good
model for imitation.
