Hi. In language-teaching circles, I am sure we come across names (I think we can call them "names") like "The Grammar-Translation Method" and "The Natural Approach." Using them in sentences, should we capitalize them?
Thank you in advance for your help.
You will find them both ways, and the choice is not really a significant one, but I think if you are speaking of the specific methods as promulgated by their originators and adherents, yes. As such, the origins of the grammar-translation method are muddied in ancient history, while the Natural Approach is still clearly and closely associated with Stephen Krashen.
