Numerous reviews of the language teaching subject show that, in spite of the impressive diversity of methods and approaches, certain basic ideas are repeated and reinterpreted, Recognition of the complexity and diversity of language learning contexts has led some to suggest that we have moved ‘beyond methods’ to a ‘postmethod’ condition (Kumaravadivelu 2002; Savignon 2007). It seems there is a big gap between CLT (communicative language teaching - one of the most popular methods today) as an approach and its implementation. This paper considers that dialogue, one of fundamentals of CLT, should be born within the free communication of learners who are taught to produce a monologue. The method of constructing lectures around good texts along with plenty of (grammar) drills is presented with the idea that such a method would help the learner to move rather speedily from the phase of interlanguage to the target language
