Many teachers in state English language education around the world are unsure about the appropriateness of the communicative approach to the conditions prevalent in their classrooms. One reason for this may be that they are trying to use a particularly narrow interpretation of this approach produced, for very different classroom contexts, by branches of the ELT community in Britain, North America, or Australasia. There is, in other words, a problem of technology transfer between these branches of the profession and the rest of the world. However, there does exist a broader version of the communicative approach which has within it the potential to adapt to all types of classroom context, provided it is informed by local knowledge. Teachers in state education already have this local knowledge about their students and the realities of their classrooms. Their experience must be capitalized upon and incorporated into a more environment sensitive communicative approach.
