Abstract

This paper explores some challenges that the teachers face to incorporate inductive method by using examples which ensures creative involvements of the students to enhance their motivation in tertiary EFL classrooms. When the teacher is going to start a class, they often feel difficulties that what should they say first definitions or examples? The study examines whether it is effective to start classes with examples rather than describing lesson topics and definitions. This study will also show how the techniques of using examples, in the beginning, act as the most effective supporting teaching aid to implement inductive method effectively.
