Methods GTM DM ALM TPR CLT
The name of
the method
and why
The classical
method because
it was first used
in the teaching
of the classical
languages,
Latin and
Greek.
The direct
method
receives its
name from
the fact that
meaning is to
be conveyed
directly in the
target
language.
The Michigan
method
because
Charles Fries
of the
university of
Michigan led
the way in
applying
principles
from
structural
linguistics in
developing
the method.
Total physical
response. It
called also "
comprehension
approach "
because of the
importance it
gives to
listening
comprehension.
Communicative
Language
teaching. It aims
to make
communicative
competence the
goal of the
language
teaching.
The role of
the teacher
The teacher is
the authority in
the classroom.
The teacher
directs the
class
activities-
less
demanding.
The teacher is
like an
orchestra
leader,
directing and
controlling the
language
behavior of
her students.
She is also
responsible
for providing
her students
with good
model for
imitation.
The teacher is
the director of
all students’
behavior.
The teacher
facilitates
communication.
1) During the
activities he acts
as an advisor
2) he might be
“co
communicator”

The role of
the students
They are
passive receiver
from the
teacher. They
do what the
teacher says.
They are less
passive than
the GTM.
The T and the
Ss are more
like partners,
Students are
imitators of
the teacher's
model or the
tapes she
supplies of
model
speakers.
They follow
the teacher's
directions and
respond as
accurately and
as rapidly as
possible.
The students
are imitators of
her nonverbal
model. There
will be a role
reversal with
individual
students
directing the
teacher and the
other students.
They are
responsible for
their own
learning. They
has a choice not
only about what
to say, but also
how to say it.
The nature
of the
interaction
The most of the
interaction is
from T to Ss
and a little
interaction from
Ss to Ss
The
interaction
goes both
ways.
There is
student-to-
student
interaction in
chain drills or
when students
take different
roles in
dialogues, but
this
interaction is
teacher-
directed. Most
of the
interaction is
between
teacher and
students and is
initiated by
the teacher.
The teacher
interacts with
the whole
group of the
students and
with individual
students.
Students
perform the
actions
together,
watching each
other and
observer.
The interaction
goes both ways.
The feeling
of the
students
_______ _______ _______
Silent period
should be taken
into
consideration.
Teacher should
By learning to
communicate, Ss
will be
motivated to
study another

not force the Ss
to speak and
when they
begin speaking,
perfection
should not be
necessary.
language, Ss
security is
enhances and
they can express
their
individuality.
Grammar Deductive Inductively Inductive (Inductive)
They teach
them grammar
by imperatives
The Ss learn
grammar from
the function,
situational
context and the
roles of the
interlocutors.
The role of
the students’
L1
The interactions
mostly used in
L1
L1 should not
be used in the
classroom.
L2 is used in
the classroom,
not the student
native
language
(L1).
TPR is usually
introduced in
the students'
native
language. After
the
introduction,
rarely would
the native
language be
used. Meaning
is made clear
through body
movements.
L2 is used all the
time but if it
helps the
communication,
then L1 can be
used.
The
evaluation
Written tests
(Translate,
answer target
questions, apply
grammar rule)
Oral and
written skills.
Discrete point,
that is, each
question
should focus
on one point
of the
language at a
time.
By observing
their students'
actions. Formal
evaluation can
be conducted.
The teacher
evaluates the
students’
accuracy and
fluency. She he
can use formal
evaluation.

Errors
correction
The teacher
supplies them
with the correct
answer directly.
Accuracy is
more important
than fluency.
The teacher
tries to get
students to
self-
correction.
Student’s
errors are to
be avoided if
all possible,
through the
teacher's
awareness of
where the
students will
have
difficulty, and
restriction of
what they are
taught to say.
Teachers
should be
tolerant of
them and only
correct major
errors. Even
these should be
corrected
unobtrusively.
As students get
more advanced,
teachers can
'fine tune ' –
correct more
minor errors.
Errors are
tolerated. They
are seen as a
natural outcome
of the
development of
communication
skills.
