Foreign language teaching, grammar instruction, traditional methods, modern methods, CLT, TBLT, technology integration, communicative competence.Abstract
This paper provides an overview of traditional and modern approaches to grammar instruction in foreign language teaching. It examines the historical foundations of traditional methods such as the Grammar-Translation Method and the Direct Method, describing their theoretical assumptions, strengths, and limitations. The study also explores modern communicative and student-centered techniques, including Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT), and technology-enhanced learning. By comparing these approaches, the paper highlights the shift from rule-based instruction to communicative competence and authentic language use. The analysis demonstrates that while traditional methods offer structural clarity, modern approaches provide richer opportunities for interaction, fluency development, and learner engagement.
