The popular methodology for teaching English language

as a second language in schools

Throughout this theoretical research I would like to show that there are different

scientific acknowledgements about the influence of positive effects of the popular

methodology for English language teaching as a second language in schools. During the

presentation of the popular methodology, its approaches, methods and techniques will be

defined, explained and analysed for use in English language teaching.

The introductory part of the work will be used for defining of the following terms:

approach, method and techniques of popular methodology for use in English language

teaching. Then, the hypothesis would be presented at the end of this part. The hypothesis

would be as follows:

“It is presumed that the use of various approaches, methods and techniques of the

popular English teaching methodology significantly contributes to acquisition of English

language as a second language “.

 The main part of the work would start with the explanation of research methodology

and techniques, along with their own methods, techniques, subjects, aims and problems. As

the main part continues, approaches, methods and techniques of the popular methodology

will be analysed and their mutual comparison is going to be conducted with the results from

the theoretical research of numerous prominent authors. The advantages and dis-

advantages of these approaches, methods and techniques will be shown and the possibility

of their application for use in English language teaching and learning will be presented.

The analysis will be comprised from findings obtained trough theoretical research

from the main part and it will show if the hypothesis is confirmed or dismissed. To

conclude the analysis my own research results will be given on the approaches, methods

and techniques of the popular methodology.

The conclusion will contain my personal view on the subject together with my own

opinion: whether the approaches, methods and techniques of the popular methodology can

be applied to successfull English language teaching? In the end I will present some

questions that appeared during my work, along with suggestions for further research.
