    3. The Goal Language teaching is based on the idea that the goal of language acquisition is Communicative competence: the ability to use the language correctly and appropriately to accomplish communication goals. The desired outcome of the language learning process is the ability to communicate competently, not the ability to use the language exactly as a native speaker does.

    4. Communicative Language Teaching Language learning is learning to communicate. Effective communication is sought. Drilling may occur, but peripherally. Comprehensible pronunciation is sought. Any device which helps the learners is accepted - varying according to their age, interest, etc.

    5. Communicative Language Teaching Attempts to communicate may be encouraged from the very beginning. Judicious use of native language is accepted where feasible. Translation, may be used where students need or benefit from it. Reading and writing can start from the first day, if desired. The target linguistic system will be learned best through the process of struggling to communicate.

    6. Communicative Language Teaching Communicative competence is the desired goal. Linguistic variation is a central concept in materials and methodology. Sequencing is determined by any consideration of content, function, or meaning which maintains interest. Teachers help learners in any way, that motivates them to work with the language. Language is created by the individual often through trial and error.

    7. Communicative Language Teaching Fluency and acceptable language is the primary goal: accuracy is judged not in the abstract but in context. Students are expected to interact with other people, either in the flesh, through pair and group or in their writings. The teacher cannot know exactly what language the students will use.
