Explanation

The CLT approach includes the introduction of authentic texts into the learning situation, which means using real-life materials such as newspaper articles or videos to expose students to authentic language use. This helps students develop their language skills in a more realistic and meaningful context. Additionally, the CLT approach aims to link classroom language learning with language activities outside the classroom. This means encouraging students to use the language they learn in real-life situations outside of the classroom, such as through interactions with native speakers or by engaging with authentic language materials outside of class.

Teaching also requires students to organize their thoughts, communicate effectively, and develop critical thinking skills. This approach promotes active learning and helps students become more confident and proficient in the subject matter.
