This document outlines an approach to teaching language methodology that incorporates informal language acquisition to develop student communication skills and self-confidence. The basic principles include using English whenever possible, providing meaningful exposure to English, ensuring the language is comprehensible, and helping students develop communication abilities through learner-centered lessons focused on doing rather than receiving. When teaching reading, the procedure involves pre-reading, whilst-reading, and post-reading activities to develop skimming, scanning, and intensive reading skills. A variety of text types, reading skills, question types, pre-reading and post-reading activities are discussed.
