Abstract: Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) is a communicative
language teaching method that emphasizes learners' engagement in accomplishing
practical, real-world tasks. This study explores the theoretical foundations of TBLT,
discussing its strengths and weaknesses. It also examines strategies for designing
effective tasks and seamlessly incorporating them into language curricula. Findings
reveal a positive link between TBLT and enhanced language acquisition. The study
includes real-life examples of TBLT applications and provides actionable advice for
educators.
