English is
considered as fascinating and laureates’ language in Pakistan. It has also
become a status symbol in our society. Pakistani learners are facing difficulty
while studying English because they are not taught English as a skill rather as
a subject. For the benefits of students, language teachers had a thrust to
invent new methods to satisfy their students’ needs. The current study was
designed to explore the utility of combination of grammar translation method
and direct method for teaching English at intermediate level. The next
objective was to investigate the impact of teaching methods on the
effectiveness of teachers separately. All the intermediate level teachers from
district Bahawalpur were the population of the study. Four hundred teachers
were selected randomly from eighty colleges with equal participation of males
and females. A self-constructed instrument Teaching Methods Survey (TMS) was
used. Data were analyzed with the help of SPSS version 22. The results revealed
that there exists a significant difference between male and female teachers’
effectiveness. The mean score shows that female teachers had improved
effectiveness as compared with male teachers. There exists non-significant
difference between DM and GTM. A non-significant difference was found between
male and female teachers. The analysis revealed a significant difference
between male and female teachers. The mean score shows that female teachers had
better effectiveness as compared with male teachers. It is recommended that
there should be use of both teaching methods in the context of Pakistan. No
single method is successful.
