- Abstract
The aim of learning a foreign language is none other than to be able to use the respective language similarly to the way in which a native would, which is why we believe that exposing the students to authentic materials throughout the teaching process is crucial. This is also one of the sore pillars of the communicative method. Therefore, after a brief presentation of the main principles this teaching theory is based on, we tried to exemplify some of the ways in which its methods could be successfully used in our particular case, laying special emphasis on the advantages of choosing such an approach, among which that of meeting the students learning needs and that of offering them the chance to become truly competent and efficient language users. In other words, they will be able to adequately convey an intelligible message to a speaker, within a larger social and situational context.
