Benefits and Strategies of Communicative Language Learning

          The article of Benefits and Strategies of Communicative Language Learning by Paul Overland is a very comprehensive and important article. This shows us the importance of language learning and that communication goes beyond the grammatical competence and leads us to interact with others in a different language so correct and fun. I understand that the advantage is that through communicative language, learning students acquire fluency to communicate and express themselves and increasing their interest in the language and may have an interest in improving the quality of the grammar.  

            The article provides several strategies for communicative language learning, including this: The private dialogue, an immersive environment, and music instruction. We must encourage private dialogue, but this starts from the simple to the complex. In order to achieve to make private dialogue should start practicing the language communicative, expressing your wishes, speak with someone you trust to not feel fear and you can express yourself freely, but to help you correct your mistakes. The teacher in the classroom must win the confidence of the student by which he can express their ideas without fear of ridicule. Then there is trust, dialogue among students will be effective and productive. Then in order to achieve a dialogue between students take practice to get to the communicative language proficiency. There are several alternatives for virtually the communicative language in the form of dialogue, forming groups to perform work and then present to the class, make trips and get to interact with the guides or other people, communication skills and dialogue between teacher-student private.  

           We need to establish an environment of immersion teaching, to make it happen that the target language must be same to the language of instruction. The student will listen and be surrounded by the same language throughout the day will be forced to develop to get through. This is how it all must start from the simple to the complex is important is to reach communicative competence.  

           This technique is very common in grades pre-school children and teachers repeatedly help students to acquire the retention of instructional songs. The songs of instruction are links to important components such as alphabet, numbers, days of the weeks, months, and other important terms, depending on the grade and the student. To establish this technique, is to use different visual and auditory means that it is repetitive. Which brings us to this is a learning process based on memorization. No doubt, auditory learning is vital to allow competition hearing.
