The article highlights the role of input and output in language acquisition, emphasizing the need for a balance between the two. It also discusses the significance of communicative language teaching strategies and providing opportunities for students to practice speaking in real-world settings. Ultimately, the article concludes that effective language instruction involves both input and output, and that teachers should foster an environment that encourages students to engage in communicative activities.
