Introduction
Language acquisition requires psychological approach for it is closely related to the psychological needs of learners. As language acquisition is a fundamental part of human perception, various approaches and methods of language teaching have focused on catering to the psychological needs of learners. Linguists and language experts have been trying to enhance the quality of language teaching since the nineteenth century. Brown (2001) reports that in the century spanning the mid-1880s to the mid-1980s, the language teaching profession was involved in a search. The search was for "methods" or ideally a single method generalizable across widely varying audiences that would successfully teach students a foreign language in the classroom. Various studies have been conducted with a view to gauging how a language has to be acquired. The formulation of new methods in language teaching demands the role and participation of language teachers. Freeman and Anderson (2011) state that teachers must not only attempt to meet their students' learning needs, but they must also juggle other competing demands on their time and attention.
