Innovative Approaches to Teaching English in Non-Philological Disciplines

Abstract

This literature review explores innovative approaches to teaching English in non-philological disciplines, emphasizing the integration of content and language learning (CLIL), collaborative learning, and technology-enhanced methods. The review highlights various pedagogical frameworks that aim to enhance English language acquisition by aligning instruction with subject matter content, fostering collaboration among students, and utilizing digital tools to improve engagement. Key themes include the importance of contextualized language instruction, the role of literature in developing communicative competence, and the necessity of adapting teaching strategies to meet the needs of diverse learners. The findings emphasize that effective language teaching in non-philological disciplines requires a shift from traditional methods to more integrated, student-centered approaches that prioritize meaningful engagement with both content and language.
