The Use of Authentic Materials in Classrooms

Abstract

The use of authentic materials in an EFL classroom is what many teachers involved in foreign language teaching have discussed in recent years. there are persuasive voices insisting that the English presented in the classroom should be authentic, not produced only for instructional purposes. generally, what this means is that authentic materials involve the language that naturally occurs as communication in the native speaker contexts of use, or rather in the selected contexts where standard English is the norm.
