This article examines the role of Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) in developing General English skills among English language learners. The study is based on the analysis of recent literature related to English language teaching methodologies. Communicative activities such as pair work, group discussions, role plays, and problem-solving tasks provide learners with meaningful opportunities to practice English in real-life situations. The findings indicate that these techniques improve learners’ speaking, listening, reading, and writing skills while increasing motivation and confidence. The article concludes that Communicative Language Teaching is an effective approach for enhancing General English proficiency.
