Question

Which of the accuracy and fluency in language, you as language teacher would give priority kind facilitating learning of language and why?

Answer 1

Accuracy is the ability to produce correct sentences using correct grammar and vocabulary. On the other hand, fluency is the ability to produce language easily and smoothly. It is very difficult to choose where accuracy should be stressed over fluency and vice versa.

Traditional teachers give greater importance to accuracy, in language learning. They force the children to read and write in correct grammatical terms. In most of the classes children are hardly given an opportunity to improve by recognizing their own errors.

Another group of teachers believe that language is the medium for expression of feelings and experiences. They give more importance to fluency. Instead of grammar, they lay focus on understanding the meaning and reference, along with this, they emphasize that the children speaking fluently should be able to express themselves in such a way that the listener understands it correctly.

After having a look at both the perspectives, in fact, it seems that both stand correct in their own place. In order to learn language from an overall perspective, children have to be skilled in both.
