The communicative approach emphasizes teaching listening and speaking before reading and writing. It was developed in the US during World War II based on the ideas of structuralism and behaviorism. The goal is to form language habits through dialogues and drills to promote accurate oral performance, with an immediate focus on fluency over written accuracy. The main aim is to enable students to use the language to express themselves and communicate in meaningful ways.
