A brief History of language Teaching

The Reasons why changes in language teaching methods have occurred:

Ø Changes in the kind of proficiency learners need; such as move toward oral proficiency rather than reading comprehension as the goal of language study.

Ø Changes in theories of the nature of language and of language teaching.

Masa Romawi Kuno dan Abad Pertengahan

Ø Sebelum kekuasaan Romawi Berkembang: bangsa Romawi mempelajari bahasa Yunani sebagai bahasa kedua.

Ø Setelah bangsa Romawi berkembang: bahasa Latin menjadi bahasa internasional dunia barat, bahasa gereja, dan bahasa Negara, dan juga menjadi bahasa satu-satunya bahasa ilmu pengetahuan dan bahasa pengantar di sekolah-sekolah.

Ø 16th Century: French, Italian, and English gained in importance as a result of political changes in Europe, and Latin gradually became displaced as a language of spoken and written communication.
