The Attitude of College Teacher Towards CLT in Rural Areas of Bangladesh

Abstract

This paper examines the attitude of a college teacher towards Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) in EFL classroom. A male English teacher from a rural college participated in the study. The data were collected through classroom observation and follow-up interview. Results of the study indicate that the participant has positive attitude towards CLT but fails to implement it in classroom because of some obstacles such as teachers‘ private tutoring, lack of resources, lack of relevant training, and objectives of the curriculum. The study offers some suggestions in the end.
