1. Which of the techniques below follows from the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method,
and which ones do not? Explain the reasons for your answer.

a. The teacher asks beginning-level students to write a composition about the system of
transportation in their home countries. If they need a vocabulary word that they do not know,
they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation.

b. Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a reading
passage. The teacher asks the students to read the passage and to answer certain questions
based upon it. The passage contains words and structures introduced during the first three
weeks of the course.

c. The teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in the
present tense in English. She then gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to change
the verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about
this? Why?

1. in my opinion the correct answer is C: The teacher tells the students that they must ass an "s"
to the third person singular verbs in the present tense in English. She then gives the students a
list of verbs and asks them to change the verbs into the third person singular present tense
form.

Explain : the purpose of Audio-Lingual Method is aim to practice speaking at the basic
foundation of skill .The imitation and repetition should be correct as it is one of the outcome
of techniques, learning L2 requires basic information and the communication should follow
correct the authentic materials: the conversation in the topics, the chain drills provided.

2. In my opinion the audio-lingual method teacher would say that it's irrelevant how many other
languages the learner knows - with the exception perhaps of languages that have similar
sounds to the language being learned, as this would help with clear pronunciation.

A. Check your understanding of the Audio-Lingual Method.
1. Which of the techniques below follows from the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method,
and which ones do not? Explain the reasons for your answer.
a. The teacher asks beginning-level students to write a composition about the system of
transportation in their home countries. If they need a vocabulary word that they do not
know, they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation.

Answer:

This technique doesn’t follow the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method because in ALM,
writing is not the skill which receive most of the attention and vocabulary is not studied a lot. In
other words, in ALM, the students do not do writing activity and learning vocabulary a lot.
Instead of Audio-Lingual Method, this technique follows the principle of Grammar-Translation
Method.

b. Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a reading
passage. The teacher asks the students to read the passage and to answer certain questions
based upon it. The passage contains words and structures introduced during the first three
weeks of the course.

Answer:

This technique doesn’t follow the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method because in ALM,
reading is not the skill which receive most of the attention and the students do not do reading
activity a lot. So, the test which is given to the students should not about reading, but it can be
about the sound system or grammatical patterns.

c. The teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in
the present tense in English. She then gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to
change the verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

Answer:

This technique does follow the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method because in ALM, the
students learn about grammatical patterns a lot.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about
this? Why?

Answer:

Theories Of Teaching And Methods Page 3


 In the Audio-Lingual Method, the students’ native language will not be helpful for them
in learning the target language. It is because in the teaching and learning process there is
no translation activity where the students may translate words or sentences from the
target language to their native language. During the class the teacher and the students
only use the target language in communication or in the teaching and learning process.
So, the students’ native language will not be in any of use.

 The Audio-Lingual Method drills students in the use of grammatical sentence


patterns and it has a strong theoretical base in linguistics and psychology. In this
method, the learners learn language as a habit, just like how they learn their native
language. So, they have to overcome the habits of their native language and form the
new habits required to be target language speakers. In other words, the learners have
to practice the target language a lot.

b. Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a reading
passage. The teacher asks the students to read the passage and to answer certain questions based
upon it. The passage contains words and structures introduced during the first three weeks of the
course, because the Audio-Lingual Method is a teaching method that emphasizes the teaching of
a foreign language of listening and speaking before reading and writing. Practiced special
patterns from language through structured dialogue and drill until finally a response came
automatically. The Audio-Lingual Method is a and c because the process of writing in advance
without hearing and speaking makes disciples harder to understand because it is not given an
explanation or image of what they will do.

2. The audio-lingual teacher says it is true because the first language is so closely related to
cognitive development, if the child can produce a speech based on regular grammatical neatly, it
does not automatically imply that the child has mastered the language properly. So, too, is the
second language to choose when one acquires a language of another after first mastering to a
certain extent his first language or the term is a foreign one. With knowledge of the first and
second languages it makes it easier for a person to want to learn a third language by practicing
the way he taught a second language, because our first language is gained by imitating a
language first in the family, in this process without realizing that we have learned a language.

a. The teacher asks beginning-level students to write a composition about the system
of transportation in their home countries. If they need a vocabulary word that they
do not know, they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation.(YES)
- Because, the students were told to find the new vocabulary they got from
reading the text and that was in line with the "lingual method audio."

b. Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a
reading passage. The teacher asks the students to read the passage and to answer
certain questions based upon it. The passage contains words and structures
introduced during the first three weeks of the course.(NOT)

- Because, Not according to the "lingual method audio" learning system,


here students are instructed to create questions from what they read while in the

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to
learners who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say
about this? Why?

ANSWER:
1. a. first techniques are not from Audio-Lingual techniques, why? Because Audio-Lingual
technique doesn’t explain how to make an article in English as well and look forward to the
dictionary if the student can’t find what the vocab is in English.
b. the second techniques are from Audio-Lingual techniques because the techniques including to
“Questions-and-answer Drill”. In this technique the student asked to answer the teacher
questions based on the passage she/he gave before.
c. the third techniques are from Audio-Lingual techniques because it calls “Grammar Game” in
Audio-Lingual technique. The games are designed to get students to practice a grammar point
within a context.

2. I believe in this, because as we know learning target language really needs translation, so
that new vocabulary can be understood if the teacher translate it into second or first
language and also the student can used it in every their activities and make students able to
apply what they have learnt about the target language (third language).

1. The correct answer is C that is, The teacher tells students that they have to give the "s" to
the third person singular verb in the present tense in English. He then gave the students a
list of verbs and asked them to change the verb to the present third person singular form.

Theories Of Teaching And Methods Page 8


The reason is because the purpose of the Audio-Lingual Method is to practice speaking as
a basis for skills. Imitation and repetition must be correct because it is one of the results
of the technique, L2 learning requires basic information and communication must follow
the correct authentic material, the conversation in the topic, the chain exercises provided

2. Well, since audio-lingual teachers are used as role models for the language. Students will
mimic the correct form. Language learning is habit. Repeat and drill often. They have the
role to lead the students to go with the correct pronunciation, and it's good to have an
experience of learning languages right before you learn your third language, so you
unconsciously have sharpened you second nature to learn new language, and this audio-
lingual is a method of foreign language teaching which emphasizes the teaching of
listening and speaking before reading and writing. It uses dialogues as the main form of
language presentation and drills as the main training techniques, therefore because of this
whoever's trying to learn a third language, it'll be a piece of cake for them to comprehend
the lessons as they already had their experience, that's what would an audio-lingual
teacher say about it.

they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for translation

Theories Of Teaching And Methods Page 9


Answer: This technique doesn’t follow the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method. This
technique follows the Grammar-Translation Method because as we have known that, Lingual
audio methods are a method that USES hearing and pronunciation exercises in language
learning. The emergence of this method is based on the assumption that language is speaking
rather than writing,this technique doesn't follow the principles of the audio-lingual,the students
have to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation. They don’t receive any feedback. They
have to work the writing instead of working the speaking.

teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in

The reason is the purpose of Audio-Lingual-Method is aim to practice speaking at the


basic foundation of skill, the imitation and repetition should be correct as it is one
of the outcome of techniques, learning L2 requires basic information and the
communication should follow correct the authentic materials : the conversation in

certain questions based upon it. The passage contains words and structures
introduced during the first three weeks of the course. Because the only focus with
grammar it has a strong theoretical base in linguistics and psychology point and
this principles try to learn skills of reading, and writing, and the teachers are more
involved and the communicator more like partner.

2. Mastery of the first and second languages can facilitate mastery of the third language, but
it can be very difficult to master it on the other hand, depending on how each individual
learns it. The reason why mastering a first and second language can make it easier to
learn a third is because if you studied your L2 as a teenager or an adult, you have
succeeded in figuring out what strategies work best for you. The more extroverts of us
enjoy talking to speakers of the target language, while the introverts prefer pouring out
textbooks and grammar books. Research also shows that learners who are both language
literate, and those with metalinguistic knowledge, are in a particularly advantageous
position because, among other things, metalinguistic awareness enables them to make
comparisons and generate creative hypotheses. And what gets interesting when it comes
to third languages. We know that our first language L1 affects the learning process of
other languages, but we do not always expect that our L2 also wants to play an active role
in L3 learning. Then most likely our L1 and L2 can also play a role in studying our L3
which we are trying to master.

ANSWERED:
The Audio-Lingual method is a teaching style used in teaching foreign languages
which recognizes that certain traits or characteristics of living things can be trained
throught a reinforcement system that emphasizes the teachings of listening and
speaking before reading and writing.

In the first part of the technique, I think it follows the principles of the Audio-Lingual
Method. Because the principles of the Audio-lingual method relate to Writing,
reading, listening and speaking. then the form of the technique in the first part shows
that the teacher is asking students to write.

verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about this?
Why?

Answer
1. I think the answer is in part C, the reason is because the teacher tells the student to add the
letter "s" to the present tense of the third person singular verb in English. After that the teacher
gives the student a list of verbs then converts it into the current third person singular because
basically the aim of the Audio-Lingual Method is to train the basic speaking skills of the students
being taught. Repetition and imitation done by students must be correct because it is one of the
results of the technique.

2. Mastery of the first and second languages can help in mastering the third language because
learning the first language or L1 can affect the learning process of other languages or affect the
mastery of a second or L2 language later. Likewise in mastering L2 when they are adults and still
teenagers, at least we can find out what strategy is right for us in understanding the language to
be learned. The essence of the above is that mastery of the first or second language can help
make it easier to master the third language, but this can also depend on how each of us learns it.

I think that following the principles of the audio-lingual method is the point c. Because
the audio-lingual method trains students in using grammatical sentence patterns and this method
also aims to practice speaking as a basic skill, not only practicing speaking but listening, writing
and reading.
And those who do not or do not follow the principles of the audio-lingual method,
namely points a and b point a because this method is more directed towards the grammar-
translation method technique because it looks at a bilingual dictionary to translate and point B
because it does not follow the principles of the audio-lingual method, but it can be a technique
of practicing the reading method.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about this?
Why?
Answer:
Well, since audio-lingual teachers are used as role models for the language. Students will

C. The teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in
the presents tense in English. She than gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to
change the verbs into the third person singular present tense form. (CORRECT)
 This technique follow the principles of audio lingual method because the teacher
asks the students to replace a subject in a sentence in the form of ‘I’ replaced with
‘she/he’.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to
learners who are trying to learn a third language. What would an audio Lingual-Teacher
say about this? why?
 No, it is interfering with learning a third language because languages have
different grammar and pronunciation like Japanese. Japanese has a different
proununciation and lettering from other languages. It will distract students from
learning a third languages. Never use 1 and 2 language, in that areas students will
meet difficulties.

Because Vocabulary is kept to a minimum, new vocabulary and structural patterns are
presented through dialogues. The dialogues are learned through imitation and repetition.
Drills (such as repetition, backward build-up, chain, substitution, transformation, and
question-and-answer) are conducted based upon the patterns present in the dialogue it means
that the teacher tells students to write the composition. And In lessons later in the week, the
teacher will Review the dialogue that has introduced during the first three weeks of the
course

a The teacher asks beginning-level students to write a composition about the system of
transportation in their home countries. If they need a vocabulary word that they do not
know, they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation.

b Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a reading
passage. The teacher asks the students to read the passage and to answer certain
questions based upon it. The passage contains words and structures introduced during the
first three weeks of the course.

And C is not follows from the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method. Because as we know
that the teacher is not teach how to show up the speaking skill of the student. The teacher
only asks the students to write or add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in the present
tense in english . So that this technique is not follows from the principles of the ALM.
c The teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third person singular verbs in the
present tense in English. She then gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to change
the verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

I. The teacher tells the students that they must add an 's' to third person singular verbs in the
present tense in English. She then gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to change the
verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

Answer:
I think that following the principles of the audio-lingual method is the point c. Because the
audio-lingual method trains students in using grammatical sentence patterns and this method also
aims to practice speaking as a basic skill, not only practicing speaking but listening, writing and
reading.

And those who do not or do not follow the principles of the audio-lingual method, namely points
a and b point a because this method is more directed towards the grammar-translation method
technique because it looks at a bilingual dictionary to translate and point B because it does not
follow the principles of the audio-lingual method, but it can be a technique of practicing the
reading method.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about this?
Why?

Answer:

Well, since audio-lingual teachers are used as role models for the language. Students will mimic
the correct form. Language learning is habit. Repeat and drill often. They have the role to lead
the students to go with the correct pronunciation, and it's good to have an experience of learning
languages right before you learn your third language, so you unconsciously have sharpened you
second nature to learn new language, and this audio-lingual is a method of foreign language
teaching which emphasizes the teaching of listening and speaking before reading and writing. It
uses dialogues as the main form of language presentation and drills as the main training
techniques, therefore because of this whoever's trying to learn a third language, it'll be a piece of
cake for them to comprehend the lessons as they already had their experience, that's what would
an audio-lingual teacher say about it.

1. A. This way isn’t belong to the Audio-Lingual Method, because the teacher who using
the ALM won’t allow her students to use dictionary in order to translate the vocabulary that they
didn’t know,but the teacher will find another alternative to overcome that problem, for example
by showing the picture that relate with the meaning of the student’s unknown vocabulary.

B. the second one is also didn’t belong to ALM, because by giving the students a passage
to read and some questions to asnwer is belong to GTM, ALM is emphasizing in grammar,
speaking in native language and listening.

C. the last method is belong to ALM, because by giving the students a task to practice
their understanding about the certain grammar that their teacher gave is one of the ALM’s
method.

2. That’s true that the statement “knowledge of a first and second language can be
helpful to learners who are trying to learn a third language”. Why do I say like this, because
the way we learn our first and second language is always about practising and listening.
Actually most of us didn’t aware why we can speak so fluently in our first or second
language, that’s because a habit. A habit to use it in speaking and listening to anybody who
use that language. That method will make the students or whoever who wants to learn the
third language easier to learn it well, a habit in speaking and listening. Those are the keys in
learning new language.

Answer : C The teacher tells the students that they must add an ‘s’ to third
person singular verbs in the present tense in English. She then gives the
students a list of verbs and asks them to change the verbs into the third person
singular present tense form.

Reason : because the purpose of Audio Lingual method is to practice speaking.


The teacher lead the student to do an imitation and repetition of conversation
that taught before correctly. Learning L2 needs basic information and the
communication should follow correct the authentic materials: the conversation
in the topics, the chain drills provided.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful
to learners who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual
teacher say about this? Why?
Based on research of University of Haifa, is it true that the third language can
be learn easily if we already fluent in first and second language because the
fluency and skills in one language assist in the language acquisition of a
second language, and possessing skills in the two language can boost the
learning process of the third language. Prof Abu-Rabia explained “this is
because language reinforce one another, and provide a tools to strengthen
phonologic, morphologic and syntactic skills. These skills provide the
necessary basis for learning to read. Our study also shown that applying
language skills from one language to another is a critical cognitive function
that make it easier for an individual to go through the learning process
successfully. Hence, it is clear that tri-lingual education would be most

successful when started at a young age and when it is provided with highly
structured and substantive practice,” he concluded.

lessons rather than as the foundation of the course. These types of lessons can be popular as they
are relatively simple, from the teacher’s point a view, and the learners always known what to
expect.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful
to learners who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual
teacher say about this? Why?
Answer :
1. From all three points. I think the b and c points are using the audio-lingual methods.
As we know The Audio-lingual Method is a method for foreign language teaching
which emphasized the teaching of listening and speaking before reading and writing.
Then, written exercises are given to learners as a summary of what has been learned
orally. In the Audio-lingual Method, the students first hear a language. Later, they
speak the language and after that, they read and write in it. At point (B) it is said that
students were given reading passages or rehearsals on the week of the lesson. Which
means one should give a few exercises after studying orally a few weeks ago. For that
point this includes using audio-lingual methods , because it lists an exercise such as
answering a question related to last week's dialogue on the third week of learning.
And in point (C) teachers teach students that they should add a single verb from 's' to
the third person in the English present tense. In this context the teacher gives the
student a grammar principle. Where the grammar is one of great importance and an
objective in the audio-lingual methods. At this point too, the teacher seems to be
justifying the students' faults in grammar, as in the audio-lingual method principle. As
for point (A) it is not one of the audio-lingual method techniques. Because as we
know that this method prioritizes lessons through listening and speaking that use drill
techniques. And at this point it only emphasizes the discovery of new vocabulary in
the literature, and then it looks for meaning in the dictionary.

2. In the audio-lingual method principle, each language has a limited pattern. Practice
patterns help students form habits that enable students to use those patterns. Which
means that when one has been accustomed to speaking another language it is easier to
learn another language, because he already knows how and technique to learn a new
language. Because it all takes practice and repetition, so it makes it easier. For that,
knowledge of first and second languages can help to learn a third language.

they are told to look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation.
B. Toward the end of the third week of the course, the teacher gives students a reading passage.

The passage contains words and structures introduced during the first three weeks of the course.
C. The teacher tells the students that they must add an 's' to third person singular verbs in the
present tense in English. She then gives the students a list of verbs and asks them to change the
Theories Of Teaching And Methods Page 30
verbs into the third person singular present tense form.

Answer :
The audio-lingual method is a method that focuses on practice activities, drills, memorizing
vocabulary, dialogue, reading text. In my opinion, the answer in accordance with the principles
of the audio lingual method is point (C). This is because these examples can train students'
grammar in a context. That way students can express themselves, even in a limited portion.
Whereas point (A) is not an example of the principle of the audio-lingual method, because it is
more inclined towards the grammar translation method because it looks for the meaning of new
vocabulary through bilingual dictionaries, usually students are only given sufficient vocabulary
(especially those that are often used in everyday life) so that the implementation of this method
can run smoothly. The last, part (B) is included in an example of the principle of the audio-
lingual method, because in my opinion this is an example of the question and answer drill
technique. This drill model trains students to answer questions correctly. The mastery of
sentence patterns is done with pattern-practice exercises. The exercise or drill follows the
sequence: stimulus> response> reinfrcement.

2. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to learners
who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher say about this?
Why?

Answer :
This depends on each individual in the process of learning it. The first and second languages will
make it easier to learn the third language, because when learning a second language, you can find
a suitable strategy. Research shows that language literate learners, and those with metalinguistic
knowledge, are in a very favorable position. because, metalinguistic awareness will enable them
to make comparisons and generate creative hypotheses. Therefore, first and second languages are
important things and experiences in the third language learning process.

4. Some people believe that knowledge of a first and second language can be helpful to
learners who are trying to learn a third language. What would an Audio- Lingual teacher

Answer
1. I think that following the principles of the audio-lingual method is the point c. Because the
audio-lingual method trains students in using grammatical sentence patterns and this method
also aims to practice speaking as a basic skill, not only practicing speaking but listening,
writing and reading. And those who do not or do not follow the principles of the audio-
lingual method, namely points a and b point a because this method is more directed towards
the grammar-translation method technique because it looks at a bilingual dictionary to
translate and point B because it does not follow the principles of the audio-lingual method,
but it can be a technique of practicing the reading method.

2. because audio-lingual teachers are used as role models for the language. Students will imitate
the correct form. Language learning is a habit. Repeat and drill as often as possible. They
have a role to play in guiding students to use correct pronunciation, and it's good to have a
language learning experience right before you learn your third language, so you have
subconsciously honed your second nature to learn a new language, and this audio-lingual is
the method. teaching foreign languages which emphasizes teaching listening and speaking
before reading and writing. It uses dialogue as the main form of presentation and language
practice as the main training technique, therefore anyone trying to learn a third language, it
will be very easy for them to understand the lesson because they already have some
experience. , that's what an audio-language teacher would say about it

1. In my opinion, the correct answer is C that is, Teacher tells students that they have to give "s"
to the third person singular verb in the present tense in English. He then gave the students a list
of verbs and asked them to change the verb to the current third person singular.
Reason: the purpose of the Audio-Lingual Method is to practice speaking as a basic skill.
Imitation and repetition must be correct because it is one of the results of the technique, L2
learning requires basic information and communication must follow the correct authentic
material, the conversation on the topic, the chain exercises provided.

2. Mastery of the first and second languages can facilitate mastery of the third language, but on
the other hand it will be very difficult to master it, depending on how each individual learns it.
Reason: because if you studied L2 as a teenager or an adult, you've figured out what strategy
works best for you. More and more of us extroverts enjoy talking to speakers of the target
language, whereas introverts prefer to write textbooks and grammar books. Research also shows
that language-literate learners, and those with metalinguistic knowledge, are in a particularly
Theories Of Teaching And Methods Page 33
advantageous position because, among other things, metalinguistic awareness enables them to
make comparisons and generate creative hypotheses. And what's interesting when it comes to a
third language. We know that our first language L1 affects the learning process of other
languages, but we do not always expect our L2 to also want to play an active role in L3 learning.
Then most likely our L1 and L2 can also play a role in studying our L3 which we are trying to
master.

Answer: This technique doesn’t follow the principles of the Audio-Lingual Method. This
technique follows the Grammar-Translation Method because the students have to
look in a bilingual dictionary for a translation. But the audio-lingual method states
that we must not use translation as an activity to teach vocabulary. We should create
and use new ways to explain an unknown word. We can use realia, flashcard,
gestures, mimictry, synonym, and antonyms to explain a word definition or
meaning.
