英语作为外语的教学一直是一项具有挑战性的任务。英语在沙特阿拉伯的作用非常有限。然而,它对社会和技术发展都非常重要。因此,我国的英语教学尤其受到研究者的关注。在沙特,英语教学从学校开始。尽管有良好的整体规划,有针对性的课程,整合的教材,合格的教师,成绩低于预期。因此,教师应该在不同的语言领域和技能中进行诊断性研究,以便了解问题的类型和相应的因素。这些尝试有望有助于形成一些富有成效的、兼容的策略,以产生最大的学术产出。教师对英语教学有不同的看法,有时可能涉及从第一语言到目标语言的翻译,反之亦然。另一方面,交际教学法的思想也是重要的,以集中的技能。然而,双语方法也可以作为一种替代战略。
Teaching of English as a Foreign Language is always a challenging task. English in Saudi Arabia serves a very limited purpose. Yet, it is very important for social as well as technological development. Therefore, English language teaching in this country in particular catches attention of many researchers. Teaching of English in Saudi starts at the school level. Despite good overall planning, purposive curriculum, integrated textbooks, qualified teachers, achievement is below the expectations. Therefore, diagnostic studies should better be undertaken in different language areas and skills so that the teacher may know the types of the problems and the corresponding factors. Such attempts are expected to be helpful in possible evolution of some fruitful and compatible strategies in order to yield the maximum academic output. Pedagogues have different views regarding English Language Teaching which may occasionally involve translation from First language to the target language and vice versa. On the other hand, the idea of Communicative approach to Language Teaching (CALT) is also significant in order to focus the skills. However, Bilingual approach can also be used as an alternative strategy.
