Annotation. English as a language with “special role” has own a world-wide status, by either regarded as the official language or taught superior to other languages as second or foreign language . With its growing status, people are not simply satisfied with talking with each other in English. More and more focus has been put on mastering the basic four language skills which are: effective reading ability; fluency in communication; accuracy in listening and native-like writing ability.

English language learning methods can be used to teach both children and adults. Many methods have been developed to teach the English language. The natural method, for example, was developed in imitation of the way children learn their first words. Other methods, such as the total physical response method and the audio lingual method, teach the English language with a focus on specific learning styles.

Grammar Translation Method. The grammar translation method is also called the classical method. This method focuses on memorizing the grammatical rules of the English language. English grammar lessons are taught not in English but in a language the students know. This helps the students learn English by teaching them the logic of its grammar in a language they already understand.

Audio lingual Method. This method relies heavily on dialog in the English language. Sentences are learned based on context and repeated until they become second nature. Repetition is often used with little explanation of grammatical rules. Those who use the audio lingual method reason that explaining grammatical rules would prevent the forming of new language habits. Students are discouraged from using the language they know and are told to focus on drills in the new language.

Natural Method. Children initially learn language naturally, and how they do so forms the basis of the natural method. This method mimics the steps that all children go through to learn any language. First, students listen and observe English speakers. Second, students attempt to voice individual words. Third, students turn their individual words into sentences. Practice is important to fully grasp the new language.

Direct Method. The direct method combines grammatical teaching with the natural method of learning a new language. The teacher uses only the English language, and conducts intensive question-and-answer sessions to teach students their new language. Students are expected to learn more and more of the new language through these question-and-answer sessions, which build on each other. The teacher demonstrates before expecting the students to perform.

Total Physical Response Method. The total physical response method consists of two phases. In the first phase, the teacher will say, for example, "Stand" in English and then stand. Students are to copy that action when they hear the word. Students are not expected to talk during the first phase, as they are actively listening and following through on the words. The second phase comes when students are comfortable with the new language and begin to use it of their own accord. Students are able to comprehend the spoken word as well as recall English words they can use to form sentences.

Phonetic Method. Correct pronunciation of each part of a word is stressed in the phonetic method. Teachers start by reading a passage written in English. As unfamiliar words are reached, the teacher explains the word by sounding it out phonetically with the child. Afterward, students must paraphrase and answer questions on the passage. Grammatical rules are avoided in this method as well.

Communicative Language Method.This method stresses the importance of understanding the meaning of words and sentences. Understanding involves the ability to say something in a socially acceptable manner. Experiences with native speakers are encouraged. Practice various contexts so students know what is acceptable in each.

The Battle Between the Two Parties. Liberals believe group work is a more effective teaching method. They believe in student-centered curriculum, which is good for student motivation, but is not a highly efficient method.
Conservatives believe individual student work is the most effective learning method. They believe in subject-centered curriculum, which is the best of what has been thought and written. It uses common elements, familiarity, and makes good progression. However, the world is not organized into subjects.
