Integrating Traditional Instruction and Communicative Language Teaching in Teaching English at SMAN 6 Pekanbaru
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study aims to explore how traditional instruction and CLT are integrated in English teaching at SMAN 6 Pekanbaru using a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews with three English teachers and document analysis of lesson plans and teaching materials.The findings revealed that teachers at SMAN 6 Pekanbaru have begun to integrate CLT into lessons that were previously dominated by traditional methods. Communicative activities such as group discussions and role-plays are implemented alongside grammar instruction. This integration has led to improved student motivation, participation, and communicative competence. However, challenges remain, including large class sizes, limited resources, and varied teacher understanding of CLT. Despite these obstacles, the integration creates a more balanced and effective English learning environment.
