COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF COMMUNICATIVE LANGUAGE TEACHING (CLT) AND TASK-BASED LANGUAGE TEACHING (TBLT)

Аннотация

Abstract This article compares two popular language teaching methods—Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) and Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT). Both approaches aim to help learners use language in real-life situations, but they go about it in different ways. CLT focuses on developing communication skills through interaction and fluency, while TBLT encourages learning through completing real- world tasks. By exploring their features, strengths, and challenges, this article helps language teachers choose or combine methods that best support their students’ learning.
