Teacher based method

Critism

Too much things to do for teacher. They are acting like actor, trying to keep learners awake, controlling the learning, applying the techniques. It is tiresome for both sides. One side is conveying everything other side is memorizing everything.

Other skills are not given enough: Reading, Writing.

Lab environment is not natural. Learners can not communicate with each other and teacher naturally although actual goal of the method is communicate.

Behaviourism is not appropriate for human being. Learner should think and product something. They could not memorize forever.They can not understand meanings and product something new because they are out of thinking.
