Abstract: Although the importancee of teaching and learning English has been widely recognized, many still do not know the best way to optimize the students’ ability in EFL learning. This article attempts to explore effective ways of teaching English by reviewing an article by Illèss and Akcan. In-volving 25 pre-service English teachers in Turkey and nine in Hungary, the researchers recorded their classrooms’ condition and conducted semi-controlled interviews with the teachers to investigate the use of real-life language in their classrooms. It was revealed that the use of real life language in EFL classrooms was beneficial to optimize students ability in EFL learning. In addition, facilitating the use of spontaneus language, providing authentic materials and real-life context, and creating learner-centered process of learning in the classrooms also affirmed the optimization. Key Words: english teaching pedagogy, spontaneous language, authentic teaching, traditional way of teaching
