Communicative language teaching (CLT) is a language teaching approach that emphasizes the use of authentic, real-life communication as the primary goal of language instruction.
It is based on the idea that the ability to communicate effectively in a new language is the primary goal of language learning, and that language skills (such as reading, writing, and grammar) should be taught within the context of real-life communication.
In CLT, the focus is on using language for meaningful communication rather than on the form of the language itself.

The emphasis is on developing students' speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills through a variety of activities that involve real-life communication, such as role-plays, discussions, and problem-solving tasks.
CLT also involves teaching language through content, rather than teaching language as a separate subject. This means that language skills are taught through the context of other subjects, such as history, science, or social studies, rather than in isolation.
CLT is based on the idea that language is a tool for communication, and that learners need to be able to use the language in a variety of communicative situations in order to be proficient in it.
