What Is Pace Pinnacle Education’ Communicative Method Of Teaching English?

It has been noticed that the goal of the most of the methods is to make the students able to communicate in the target language. It had been observed that students were able to write and read the sentences in target language correctly. But when it came to communicate in the target language, they failed to do so.

When learners are involved in real communication, their natural strategies for language acquisition will be used, and this will allow them to learn to use the language.
