The document summarizes the audiolingual method of teaching foreign languages, which is based on behaviorism and originated after World War II. The goals are accurate pronunciation, quick responses, and sufficient vocabulary. Techniques include memorizing dialogs, drills substituting words in patterns, and games, with an emphasis on oral skills practice and immediate error correction. While it focuses on fluency and pronunciation, weaknesses include its reliance on memorization, lack of written language or student autonomy, and inductive grammar instruction led by the teacher.
