A brief history of language teaching

A BRIEF HISTORY OF LANGUAGE TEACHING

Changes in the language teaching methods throughout history have reflected recognition of changes in the kind of proficiency learners need, such as move toward oral proficiency rather than reading comprehension as the goal of language study.
It has been estimated that some 60 percent of today’s world population is multilingual. To say that throughout history foreign language learning has always been an important practical concern.
The grammar translation method was in fact first known in the United States as the Prussian Method.

The goal is to learn a language in order to benefit from the mental discipline and intellectual development, is a way of studying a language analysis of its grammar rules. Reading and writing are the major focus, vocabulary selection is based on the reading texts used, and words are taught through bilingual word lists, dictionary and, memorization. The sentence is the basic unit of teaching and language practice to translating sentences into and out of the target language, and it is this focus on the sentence that is a distinctive feature of the method, the accuracy is emphasized, the grammar is taught deductively, and the student’s native language is the medium of instruction. 

To conclude, all the methods have a single objective: the teaching of a specific language, for example: English, Spanish, German, so on. Although some methods has failed, for the frustation of doesn't have a good procedure.
