EFFECTIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING METHODS FROM THE LEARNER’S PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

This paper explores effective language teaching methods from the learner’s perspective, focusing on strategies that enhance engagement, comprehension, and long-term retention. Drawing on student feedback, classroom experiences, and recent pedagogical research, the study identifies key characteristics of methods that learners perceive as most beneficial. These include communicative language teaching, task-based learning, the use of authentic materials, technology integration, and personalized instruction. The findings highlight the importance of learner-centered approaches that promote interaction, autonomy, and real-world application of language skills. Understanding the learner’s point of view provides valuable insights for educators seeking to improve language instruction and foster more effective learning environments.
