postmodernism and english language teaching

this paper aims at shedding light on the concept of postmodernism, and its implications in the tesol. postmodern philosophy as a prevalent concept and a hot buzzword in philosophy, science, and art is believed to have influenced the tesol theoretically in some ways. the elements of postmodernism including: constructivism, subjectivism, relativism, localism, and pragmatism are found to have been applied in the tesol to the concept of the demise of the methods, more focus on styles, strategies, and multiple intelligences, chaos/complexity theory and critical theories. but in practice, in developing countries the tesol still lives in the modern era.
