Traditional teacher-centered classrooms often struggle to fully engage students in the learning process, which can hinder their self-esteem and academic achievement. We explores effective student-centered teaching techniques designed to transform modern classrooms by fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment. These strategies focus on the needs, interests, abilities, and learning styles of individual students, enhancing their self-esteem and overall performance.

Our purpose is to evaluate techniques that empower students to boost engagement, creativity, and take ownership of their learning.

Additionally, we present and share best practices based on empirical research and practical experience to help university lecturers optimize their teaching strategies and effectively support student development.

This approach works equally successfully in the case of different disciplines (both humanitarian and technical). Specifically, in our case, the method was used for the course of English and German as a foreign language at Batumi Shota Rustaveli State University by the Centre of Languages and information Technologies, for students of different faculties and courses. The result turned out to be really impressive, which naturally gives an incentive to continue the planned work.

Keywords: Teaching, learning, method.
