Instructional materials in the Audiolingual Method assist the teacher to develop language mastery in the learner.If the teacher is not a native speaker of the target language, the tape recorder provides accurate models for dialogues and drills.When textbooks and printed materials are introduced to the student, they provide the texts of dia- logues and cues needed for drills and exercises.A taped lesson may first present a dialogue for listening practice, allow for the student to repeat the sen- tences in the dialogue line by line, and provide follow-up fluency drills on grammar or pronunciationTape recorders and audiovisual equipment often have central roles in an audiolingual course.
