This document discusses the Audio Lingual Method of foreign language teaching. It was developed in the US during World War II to allow rapid language learning for military purposes. Key aspects of the method include an emphasis on listening and speaking before reading and writing, the use of dialogues to make classes active, immediate correction of student mistakes, and positive reinforcement to develop correct habits. While it engages students and trains listening and speaking skills through repetition, it also has disadvantages like not explaining grammar in detail and giving learners little control over their learning.
