Abstract
This thesis investigates the role of interactive teaching methods in second language acquisition (SLA). The study examines collaborative learning, task-based learning, and technology-enhanced language learning's impact on learners’ motivation, engagement, and communicative competency. Qualitative research conducted, including interviews with five language teachers, shows these methods enhance SLA by creating dynamic, immersive learning environments. They promote active participation, communication, peer interaction, and feedback. Digital tools and multimedia further support diverse learning styles and authentic language access. Research findings highlight the importance of interactive activities in language acquisition and provide practical suggestions for teachers and curriculum creators to improve SLA outcomes.
