Some English Teachers dwell their learners in deep Grammar-based classes where the teacher is the knowledge provider, that is the knower of the subject matter and learners are seen as empty containers ready to be filled up by the teacher. They think telling students what they need to know and providing immense grammatical rules will help and enable them be fluent in English Language. However, this is perhaps not true in the eyes of the learner-based approach. This renewed English teaching approach believes that learners¿ engagement in the whole process of English language teaching and learning is essential. In this approach the complete learning experience is focused on the learner. Learners need to be exposed to real life scenarios that are relevant to the development of problem solving skills. One of the English language teaching resources which have the power to empower learners is poetry.

Some leaders think teams can perform out of nothing. This is perhaps not true. Action-centered leadership Model is a leadership style in which the leader satisfies the three sets of needs namely task, team and individual in the total perspective of team performance. For a team to perform its task, resources (material and/or financial) must be available and team leader is required to provide team direction and help when need arises. Individual team members before they join an organization, they have needs they want them satisfied by the organization. So, Action-centered leadership is relevant because it helps those who lead others to address such needs in a harmonized and synchronized manner. Action-centered leadership bridges the gap between Transactional and Transformational leadership styles. It is an effective leadership style where team performance matters.
