Steven Krashen's Theory of the Second Language Acquisition

Journal Title: Scientific Work - Year 2024, Vol 18, Issue 11

Abstract

Abstract Among modern language teaching methods, the theory of second language acquisition is one of the leading methods. Stephen Krasche's theory of second language acquisition represents an important shift in the way linguists and educators approach language learning. Funded in the 1970s and 1980s, Krashen's model focuses on the idea that language acquisition is a natural and subconscious process that differs from formal language learning. His development comes from the fact that real fluency comes from getting to know the language and mastering it, rather than memorizing grammar rules. At the same time, the educator emphasizes the special diseases of language learners' attention to emotion. The five main assumptions included in Krashen's theory became teaching in language teaching, shaping methods such as immersion and communicative language teaching, which prioritize natural detail and understanding over rote learning. Krashen's theory emphasizes naturalistic, input-based approaches, and suggests that language learning environments should minimize formal grammar and material in order for my acquisition to work more effectively. Stephen Krashen's second language acquisition process suggests that the second language acquisition process closely mimics the natural language acquisition process found in first language learners. His work challenges several key assumptions about language learning.
