An Exploration to the Communicative Language Teaching Approach

It is apparent that Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) is one of the common approaches worldwide. It has been advocated by a number of linguists, methodologists and English teachers as one of the effective and successful English language teaching approaches. This book focuses on this approach and its applicability in general and Kurdistan Region-Iraq in particular. This approach concentrates mainly on communicative competence rather than grammatical competence. Many teachers try to use this approach in their teaching but fail to apply it utterly. This book also explores and undertakes the difficulties that preclude teachers in implementing this approach with some suggestions to bar these difficulties.
