THE FIELD OF MODERN LANGUAGE TEACHING
Intuitive-imitative approach- Depends on learners ability to listen to and
imitate the rhythms and sounds of the target
language without intervention of any explicitinformation.
Analytic-linguistic approach- Utilizes information and tools like phonetic
alphabet, articulatory description, charts of thevocal apparatus, and other aids to supplementlistening, imitation and production.

Direct/Natural Method (late 1800s andearly 1900s)
- Lessons are in the target language
- Focus on everyday vocabulary- Visual aids: vocabulary- Particular attention: accuracy of
pronunciation and grammar- Developed for comprehension andoral expression

- Drills Minimal Pair Drill
a. Syntagmatic drills (contrast within a sentence)
ex. Dont sit in that seat. b. Paradigmatic drills (Contrast across twosentences)
ex. Is that a black sheep?Is that a black ship?

- Learners are often more motivated with this approach
- Examples:Interviews, Surveys, Games, Role Play
