Methods NINE TWENTIETH CENTURY APPROACHES
1.Grammar Translation = focus on grammar parsing with native language instruction
2.Direct Approach = Conversational dialogues
3.Reading Approach = Reading comprehension with grammar and vocabulary for aid
4.Audiolingualism = oral-aural proficiency via mimicry-memorization
5.Oral-Situational = practice orally in various situations (i.e. at the bank, at the store)
Methods NINE TWENTIETH CENTURY APPROACHES
6.Cognitive Approach = language viewed as rule acquisition and vocabulary stressed
7.Affective-Humanistic Approach = Meaningful communication is emphasized and working in pairs and small groups
8.Comprehensive-Based Approach = Learner should not speak until ready to do so and comprehensible input is key
9.Communicative Approach = Language is seen as a system of communication and skills are integrated
