Motivating Students to Perform Better Orally in a Communicative Language Teaching Framework
Abstract
“Communicative Language Teaching” is a method used tomotivate the students to better oral performance. In this article,
we have presented the characteristics of this method that we
have tested through a study realized in the department of Foreign
Language at Mentouri University Constantine. The results that
we have obtained after the signing of two questionnaires, one
addressed to a sample of teachers and another to a sample of
second year L.M.D. students of English, demonstrated that the
method is motivating and helps students for a better oral
performance.
