Comparative Analysis of Direct Method and Grammar Translation Method on Student Learning in English among Secondary School
The grammar translation method and direct method were compared in this study to see how they impacted students' English learning outcomes at secondary school. These results were obtained through the use of an experimental pre-test and post-test control group design. In this study, the participants were all students at Govt. Islamia High School Sambrial District Sialkot. Of the 148 students in 10th grade, 60 students were randomly chosen. This study's second phase used pre-test scores to assign students to experimental and control groups. For the purpose of gathering information about students' academic progress, the MCQ test was created. Six weeks of treatment (Grammar translation) were given to the experimental group. A follow-up test was administered to all participants, experimental and control alike. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The experimental and control groups were compared using a T-test. According to the results, students who were taught English through the grammar-translation method performed better on standardized tests than students who were taught the subject directly.
