CLT in the classroom(Communicative Language Teaching)
Explanation, brief, clear and simple.
Use visuals
Cognitive styles
Teachers do not know everything
Mother tongue if needed

4.4 Identification of problem areas in
teaching grammar.Teaching grammar structures without context.
Text books contain manipulative drills grounded in shallow and artificial contexts, so these drills become rather meaningless so students (Walz,1989)
The inductive approach can be frustrating. Adolescents and adult learners have become analytical with regard to the rules that govern their native languages.
No language teaching should be driven by grammar instruction alone.

Whole language teaching |P.A.C.E| (Donato and
Adair-Hauck)
P-RESENTATION• Presenting the
(whole) language in a Thematic and contextualized way.
• The presentation should adequately represent the structure in question.
• Presentation should be interactive
A-TTENTION• Highlighting
some regularity of the language.
• Asking about patterns found in text
• Get learners to focus attention on the target form without needless elaboration or waste of time.
C-O-CONSTRUCT• Learners and
teachers should be co-constructors of grammatical explanation.
• Assistance in raising the students awareness about the target structure
E-XTENSION• This activity
will allow leaners to use their new skill creatively.
• The activity should be thematic related.
• They are not work sheets.

CONCLUSION
“Language learning is a thinking process, or from the learner´s viewpoint, a guessing game. Teachers need to design cognitively demanding activities that will encourage learners to hypothesize, predict, take risk, make errors, and self-correct.” (Fountas and Hannigan 1989).
By doing so, the learners become active participants in the learning process.
