The theory of learning underlying
Situation Language Teaching is
behaviorism, addressing more the
processes than the conditions of learning

8. PRINCIPLE

should be avoided mistakes
presented orally first then in written form

9. CHARACTERISTICS
Richards and Rodgers summarized the main
characteristics of the approach as follows:
• 1). Language teaching begins with the spoken language.
Material is taught orally before it is presented in written
form.
• 2). The target language is the language of the classroom.
• 3). New language points are introduced and practiced
situationally.
• 4). Vocabulary selection procedures are followed to
ensure that an essential general service vocabulary is
covered.
• 5). Items of grammar are graded following the principle
that simple forms should be taught before complex ones.
• 6). Reading and writing are introduced once a sufficient
lexical and grammatical basis is established.

16. ADVANTAGE
 Suitable for introduction to the language.
 Objectives to master the four language skills
through talking grammar structure
 The ability to quickly and accurately in speaking
situations and automatically with control the basic
structure
 It’s a method that does not requires many resources
 It’s a good method if we use it in teaching
pronunciation or vocabulary
 Its strong emphasis on oral practice, grammar and
sentence patterns conform to the intuitions of many
practically oriented classroom teachers.
 Easier to understand because the item is newly
presented in a real situation.

17. DISADVANTAGE
The learner has no control over the
content of learning. He is required simply
to listen and repeat what the teacher says
and to respond to questions and
commands.
This method do not account for the
fundamental characteristic of language
namely the creativity and uniqueness of
individual sentences.
