MODERN METHODS OF TEACHING ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE
Abstract
The application of contemporary teaching techniques in English language instruction is examined in this article, with particular attention paid to tactics like technology-enhanced instruction, community-based learning, and the flipped classroom. Because traditional approaches does not seem to work as Bergmann and Sams quoted “The traditional model of instruction does not work for every student”[1]. It looks at how these methods encourage greater engagement in both traditional and digital classrooms, boost learner autonomy, and support student-centered learning. The article also highlights how important teacher participation is to successfully enabling these strategies. It makes the case that incorporating cutting-edge teaching resources and interactive learning environments greatly enhances language acquisition and communication abilities, drawing on current research and real-world classroom experiences. The study comes to the conclusion that, with careful application, contemporary techniques can make teaching English more effective, inclusive, and inspiring.
