a trip together or negotiate a deal, they learn to use the language in a manner that
            is both functional and relevant to their everyday lives.
                   Increased Motivation. TBL naturally increases motivation because students feel
            that they are learning for a purpose, not just for exams or assessments. Tasks that
            simulate real-life situations tend to be more engaging, allowing students to see the
            immediate relevance of language learning [2]. Motivated students are more likely to
            take  ownership  of  their  learning,  and  the  process  becomes  more  enjoyable.  By
            designing  tasks  that  are  challenging  yet  achievable,  educators  can  enhance
            students' intrinsic motivation, which is crucial for sustained language learning. For
            instance, students who are tasked with preparing a presentation or role-playing a job
            interview will have a concrete reason to improve their language skills.
                   Promotes  Social  Interaction  and  Collaboration.  Task-based  activities  often
            require students to work together, encouraging interaction in the target language.
            This  is  a  significant  advantage  in  language  learning,  as  it  provides  students  with
            opportunities  to  use  the  language  socially.  Social  interaction  not  only  enhances
            linguistic competence but also builds confidence, as students feel less isolated and
            more  engaged  in  the  learning  process.  Collaboration  also  fosters  teamwork  skills,
            which are essential in both academic and professional environments. By discussing
            and  negotiating  solutions,  students  naturally  reinforce  language  patterns  and
            expressions,  further  improving  their  communication  abilities.  For  example,  group
            discussions  or  collaborative  problem-solving  tasks  in  English  expose  students  to
            diverse vocabulary, sentence structures, and speaking styles [3].
                   Preparation for Real-Life Situations. A major strength of TBL is that it prepares
            students  to  use  English  in  the  real  world.  Unlike  traditional  methods  that  often
            prioritize  passive  knowledge  acquisition,  TBL  involves  tasks  that  require  active
            communication. Whether it's ordering food in a restaurant, negotiating in a business
            setting,  or  conducting  an  interview,  students  are  better  equipped  to  face  the
            challenges they may encounter outside the classroom. Real-life tasks help learners
            develop  both  practical  language  skills  and  the  ability  to  adapt  their  language  to
            different contexts. This is especially important in a globalized world where English
            serves as the lingua franca for international communication.
                   Cognitive  Skill  Development.  TBL  promotes  cognitive  skills  such  as  critical
            thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. Students often need to think on their feet
            while  completing  tasks,  which  strengthens  their  ability  to  analyze  situations  and
            respond appropriately. For instance, when given a scenario requiring them to devise
            a  solution  to  a  problem  (e.g.,  how  to  plan  an  eco-friendly  event),  students  must
            critically  evaluate  various  factors,  make  decisions,  and  communicate  their  ideas
            clearly.  These  cognitive  skills,  developed  through  language  tasks,  extend  beyond
            language learning and are valuable in many areas of life.
                   Despite  its  benefits,  TBL  also  presents  certain  challenges  that  need  to  be
            addressed for successful implementation:
                   Resource Constraints. For Task-Based Learning to be most effective, sufficient
            resources  are  required,  such  as  high-quality  learning  materials,  technology,  and
            experienced teachers. Unfortunately, not all educational institutions have access to
            the  necessary  resources.  For  instance,  tasks  may  require  digital  tools,  videos,  or
            interactive  platforms  that  are  unavailable  in  underfunded  institutions.  The  lack  of
            such  resources  may  hinder  the  implementation  of  TBL,  making  it  difficult  for             311
            students to engage with tasks that are relevant and stimulating. Therefore, there is a
