Moreover, CLT fosters studentsʼ communicative competence, by so doing; students are able to use the target language in their daily life contexts. Finally this approach is very helpful to language teachers as to how they should treat students' errors and mistakes, because it is one of its principles that stresses that if students commit errors or mistakes, the teacher should see it as a way of learning and not dare to be the model for correct speech and writing, and regarding themselves as the primary responsible of making students produce a plenty of error-free sentences. RICHARDS, Jacks C. (2006:5) states.
