Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) has emerged as a significant approach in the field of English education, emphasizing the use of meaningful tasks to promote language learning. TBLT aligns well with contemporary educational paradigms that prioritize communicative competence over mere grammatical accuracy. This approach has been extensively explored and validated through empirical research, highlighting its effectiveness in diverse educational contexts.
