Abstract:
This proposed paper focuses on some practical ways of generating students’ interest through content-based
teaching. It is “Interest” that is essential in teaching/ learning a foreign language like English. The use of
available technology, the Internet, helps both teachers and students to access a large amount of up-to-date
materials free of charge. Thus, students become more motivated in language learning and would likely to
perform or share their parts as language learners since more enthusiasm is created owing to interesting
contents of authentic texts. This paper is written based on different sources of articles depicting the
background theories and role of content-based language teaching. In this respect, the teacher acts as a
moderator/manager to keep the teaching/ learning process in action. Upon applying the proposed method,
learning English becomes more enjoyable and dynamic. Moreover, students’ language skills are fostered and
their word-powers are reinforced up to a certain level.
