Communicative language teaching (CLT) is an approach to language teaching that emphasizes interaction as both the means and goal of learning. The main focus is on the development of students' ability to communicate effectively in life situations. This method encourages meaningful use of language and helps develop fluency and accuracy. Real materials, pair and group activities, role-playing and simulations, and activities on information spaces are taken as the main tasks of Communicative language teaching in the development of fluency and real-world communication in the classroom.
