Using activities
The latest concern of the foreign language teachers is to make the students use the target language communicatively. Among the activities or techniques, games and problem solving activities are the most preferable communicative activities.
Using music and tracks
Songs and music always create relaxing and non-threatening atmosphere for students, who are usually tense when speaking English in a formal classroom setting. In any case, students find the lesson challenging and interesting as evident from songs.
Telling stories
Both teacher and students can tell stories. Students are marvelous storytellers as well as listeners, and this ability can be used to good advance.
Telling stories is suitably applied for the production stage when students are free to say what they want and what they think. In that way, they can develop their imagination and self - confidence at the same time.
The actual research focuses on the problems in conducting practical lessons through communicative way, as it is the main topic of discussion of EFL in Uzbekistan nowadays. Accordingly, the main focus was given to educate the students from higher educational establishment. What this research intends to focus on is how to improve students’ linguistic competence and communicative competence through the Inductive way.
The basic aim of research was to observe whether communicative approach for teaching speaking and developing communicative competence effective or not and under this aim several objectives was already elaborated in order to achieve.
The students in the experimental class became more interested in lessons. The result of the experiment also indicates that this approach is a suitable teaching approach that can meet students’ needs. On the contrary, the traditional method is no longer suitable for the current English teaching situation due to its inefficiency and ineffectiveness. The results of this experiment can show that the marks of the experimental class are higher than that of the control class.
In order to prove the effect of the Traditional Methods, the researcher of the investigation makes an experiment on her own classes. After two months of teaching practice, the CLT Methodology is proved to be a suitable and successful teaching approach at the language center. Be in the view of students’ actuality in Uzbekistan, the best way to improve the situation is to combine both the Communicative Approach and some other groups of traditional methods in teaching. That is because the Communicative Approach emphasizes fluency and the Traditional method is concerned with accuracy, fluency and accuracy are the target for English learning. However, there are certainly moments when the teacher needs to explain grammar concepts to the class like the researcher had to face individually. Therefore, generally she recommends the following class structure when teaching skills:
begin with an exercise, game, listening that introduce the grammar concept;
ask students questions that will help them identify concept to be discussed;
Follow with another exercise that more specifically focuses on concept, but take an inductive approach. This could be a reading exercise with questions and responses in the structure that being taught.
Check responses, ask students to explain the grammar concept that has been introduced;
at this point introduce teaching explanations as a way of clearing up misunderstandings;
Provide an exercise which focuses on the correct construction of the grammar point. This could be an exercise such as a fill the gap, cloze or tense conjugation activity.
Ask students to once again explain the concept.
With the inductive approach, students can learn to do well only what they practice doing. Similarly, students cannot learn to think critically, analyze information, communicate grammar ideas, make logical arguments, work as part of a term in a group, and acquire other desirable skills unless they are arranged and encouraged to do those things over and over in many contexts in their own groups. They should deemphasize getting all the right answers as being the main criterion of success.
