THE METHODOLOGY OF USING INTERACTIVE METHODS IN TEACHING ENGLISH

Abstract

Abstract:This article examines the methodology of applying interactive teaching methods in English language instruction. The study is based on the IMRAD structure (Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion) and focuses on the pedagogical effectiveness of interactive approaches in developing communicative competence, critical thinking, and learner autonomy. The research was conducted among secondary school students through experimental and control groups. Various interactive techniques such as role-plays, group discussions, problem-based learning, brainstorming, and digital tools were implemented during the teaching process. The results demonstrate that interactive methods significantly enhance students’ speaking fluency, motivation, vocabulary acquisition, and overall communicative competence compared to traditional teacher-centered instruction. The findings confirm that learner-centered interactive strategies foster active participation and meaningful language use in real-life contexts. The article concludes with methodological recommendations for English teachers and highlights the importance of integrating innovative interactive technologies in language education.
