Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Traditionally, English teaching in China is dominated by a teacher-centered, book-centered, grammar-translation method, audio-lingual method and an emphasis on rote learning, resulting in limited vocabulary and poor communicative competence. However, the communicative approach has provided the expected results since it was introduced into China in the 1990s, improving their linguistic competence as well as their communicative competence.
