Abstract
This paper explores modern approaches in teaching English as a foreign language (EFL), focusing on innovative methods that enhance learners’ communicative competence and critical thinking skills. The study highlights the effectiveness of technology-assisted learning, task-based language teaching, and learner-centered strategies in improving motivation and language acquisition. By analyzing recent trends and best practices, the article aims to provide practical recommendations for teachers to create interactive, student-focused learning environments that meet the demands of the 21st century.
