METHODS AND APPROACHES IN LANGUAGE TEACHING IN BRIEF Gültekin Boran Abbreviations: T : Teacher Sts: Students L1: First Language, Mother T ongue L2: Second Language, The language the students aim to learn THE GRAMMAR TRANSLA TION METHOD (GTM) 1. Lea rni ng Theory: Deductive learning is essential. First, the teacher gives rules explicitly then the rules are reinforced with examples and exercises. 2. Lan gua ge Theor y: Language is for understanding the literature. Translation is the way to learn the language. Oral communication is not primarily important. Written language is superior to spoken language. Students also learn the structure of their own native language. Those who study a foreign language become more cultured and intellectual. 3. Cu lture: Culture is limited to literature and fine arts. 4. T each ers ' Role: T eacher is the strict author ity . Classes are teacher centred. 5. Stu dents' Rol e: Stude nts are the passive receivers of the new information. The teacher starts the activities and directs them. Students are supposed to memorise the rules and the new vocabulary with their meanings in their native language. 6. Inter acti ons: Very often “T eacher –Student ” interactions occur. Rarely “Student – Student interactions also occur. 7. V ocabu lary T eachin g: The most common vocabulary teaching technique is “the memorisation of long lists of vocabul ary wi th their equivalents in the student s’ native lan guage . Ot her  techni ques are -Teaching “cognates” (i. e., “cinema –si nema”, “theatre tiy atr o” ..., et c) . - Using synonyms and antonyms 8. Grammar T eachin g: The teaching of grammar is deductive. The teacher introduces the rules explicitly and wants the students to apply these rules to new examples in exercises. Students are supposed to memorise the rules. In order to explain the rules, the teacher uses comparison and contract between the students’ native language grammar and target language grammar. Translation is a common way to clarify the meanings of the new grammar patterns in the target language. 1
