Abstract
This article explores the critical factors influencing the selection of ESL teaching methodologies and evaluates how different approaches can be adapted to maximize learner engagement, retention, and communicative competence. By grounding this exploration in both theory and classroom-based evidence, the study aims to offer a practical framework for teachers and curriculum designers working within increasingly diverse ESL environments.
