It is an approach to language teaching which focuses on developing learners' communicative skills through authentic language in meaningful contexts. Despite some negative feedbacks on CLT, this approach is seen to be potential in developing communicative skills in English among community college students in Malaysia, which is an important employability skill in Malaysia. Thus, the study hopes to investigate the teachers' pedagogical approaches in implementing CLT in the classroom practices in selected community colleges in Malaysia. The study would provide insights on teachers' knowledge on CLT and the methods and techniques employed by the teachers which are reflected in the teachers' actual classroom practices. The teachers' awareness and reflections on their classroom practices from the interviews and classroom observations will be able to contribute to the improvement of the English language teaching in community colleges, and this would eventually improve the students' communicative skills in English. The findings of the study will also contribute to the body of knowledge about Communicative Language Teaching, especially in the Malaysian context.
