Creating a Communicative, Learner-Centred, Intercultural EFL Classroom
Abstract
the significance of cultivating student independence, improving teacher-student engagement, and adjusting instructional approaches to accommodate students proficiency levels and learning preferences. The study emphasizes the mutual reliance between language and culture, the
importance of having the ability to communicate effectively across cultures (intercultural communication competence or ICC), and the need to
include cultural material in language instruction. This text explores the difficulties and remedies involved in the implementation of Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) in China. It specifically addresses issues such as teacher training, class numbers, and student motivation.
The research concludes by recommending customized pedagogical approaches that specifically target unique educational environments, thus
fostering efficient language acquisition and intercultural sensitivity.
