Yes,you are right as for underdeveloped or developing countries in regard to teaching English withwout translating some words or short texts .
The other thing is also, the matter of if the students are second english learners or foreign english learners ,like in my country.
English as much as possible ....
Different approach could be used without using much of the mother tongue
Encourage them if they are adults or secondary students to use the dictionary Mother tongue/ English or better English only
If they are younger students teaching tools as visuals are useful
me too,because this make students are used to using only English and this help in improving their own English faster .
I think ,to somehow you are right, specially in country when English is taught as foreign english not as a second english .
It is better to teach English through English only.This will enable the child to think in English.
I totally disagree to this point beacuse teaching a language (e.g English ) is different from a country to another in depending uopn the situation there .
