Abstract

Nowadays there are various methodological suggestions which teachers offer so as to help students to enhance their level of preparation. Teachers at every level need to interact with their classes. They must use a wide range of authentic materials, set up interesting and captivating situations in order to challenge students to use the language, identify students’ types of intelligence and design suitable strategies to involve them all. I recommend that teachers should use the inductive approach to teaching. Students are given a situation or some examples. Without having been given the rule, they first study the examples and then they discover the rules for themselves. In this way, they understand the meaning and then get to the form and function.
