In response to the changing requirements and preferences of students, a variety of strategies for language education have emerged over time. The teacher-centered and student-centered paradigms for teaching languages are two of the most common ones. Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages. This study examines the characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages of both strategies in order to provide educators with the information they require to make informed decisions regarding their teaching strategies.
