Changing Paradigms in English Language Teaching: From Classical Methods to Using Artificial Intelligence

Author(s) Ms. Sameena Tabassum, Syed Mohammed Haseebuddin Quad
Country India
Abstract English Language Teaching (ELT) emerged as a professional discipline in Europe in the late 19th century. This paper traces the evolution of ELT from its early methodological foundations to contemporary trends in language pedagogy. A historical–analytical approach is employed to examine the chronological development of ELT methods and pedagogical trends. Beginning with the Classical Grammar-Translation Method, ELT has continually adopted diverse teaching approaches in response to learners' changing needs. Progressing from the Direct Method and the Audio-Lingual Method to Humanistic and Communicative Approaches, ELT has adapted to societal, educational, and communicative demands, demonstrating dynamic responsiveness to learners across the globe. With the advent of computers, Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-based English language teaching and learning has expanded steadily, and in recent years it has increasingly capitalised on the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI has significantly transformed and enriched ELT by facilitating a shift from exclusively offline instruction to blended and fully online modes for learners of all ages in both formal and informal contexts. This AI integration marks a new phase in the ongoing evolution of ELT, positioning technology at the centre of contemporary English language education. Adopting a qualitative, descriptive, and historical research design, the paper attempts to provide a conceptual framework that helps educators and researchers understand continuity and change in ELT methodologies. The paper, thus, offers a comprehensive overview of major ELT methods and highlights the emerging trends that continue to shape the discipline.
