    The Direct Method (DM) focuses on communicating in the target language through situational topics and practice of all four skills, while the Grammar Translation Method (GTM) emphasizes translating between the native and target languages with a focus on grammar rules and literacy over oral skills. The DM views language and culture holistically through daily life, while the GTM prioritizes literature and sees culture through fine arts; the native language is mostly avoided in DM but used extensively in GTM.
