INNOVATIVE METHODS IN TEACHING ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Abstract
This study compares three innovative methods used in teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL): Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT), Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), and Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL). Through quantitative and qualitative data collected from 60 university students, the research evaluates each method’s effectiveness in improving language proficiency, learner engagement, and motivation.
