values ​underlying language teaching.

about the nature of language and the nature of language learning as
well as the application of both in pedagogical contexts; everything must
be grounded in sound theory. The method is a practical realization of
the approach. The method includes decisions about the types of
activities, the roles of teachers and students, the variety of suitable
materials, as well as several models of organizing the syllabus. A
technique is implementational, meaning that a technique is something
that actually takes place in language teaching or learning in the
classroom.
