This study examines how successfully improving the four language skills and proficiency of English language learners can be achieved by employing an integrative approach. Generally speaking, teaching reading is linked to teaching writing, vocabulary, and speaking skills in the context of modern language learning. Integrating language proficiency with communication culture is important when teaching language skills. This will enable students to enhance both their language proficiency and communication skills simultaneously. These needed to be equally authentic and focused on interactions, allowing students to use their language skills for meaningful and productive communication. Students are expected to take on different roles to meet the objectives of an integrated language-learning approach. Additionally, many factors make effective integrated language learning practices difficult to implement in the classroom. For an integrated approach to language learning to effectively use the factors, they must therefore be recognized and addressed. The major goal of this article is to identify the variables that influence the application of this methodology.
