Communicative Culture of the Foreign Language Teacher

An Essential Aspect for Developing Listening Skills

Abstract

The article discusses the teacher's communication culture within foreign language classes, in our case Romanian as a non-native language. The focus is on teacher-student communication, playing an important role in the exchange of information. It progressively comes to the idea that in a language learning process, the teacher should facilitate effective communication, pay attention to the correct use of the language, provide a model of correct pronunciation and appropriate pace for learning, and encourage students to master sustainable language skills. Teacher-student communication is a fundamental aspect of the learning process, and the teacher's ability to motivate and adapt teaching methods to students' needs is essential in developing their language skills. This article aims to explore and analyse how a teacher's communicative culture can motivate students to learn a foreign language more attractively. It therefore identifies the answer to the question “To what extent can teacher communication quality develop students' listening skills?” This article aims to contribute to the dialogue by providing balanced and informed recommendations on teacher communication in the context of language learning.
