Abstract
The term authentic has been used as a reaction against the prefabricated patterns of the textbooks while authentic texts were the non-pedagogical texts used to help learners improve not only their communicative but also their cultural competences. The objective of the paper is to establish the relation between the use of authentic texts and the improvement of communicative abilities and to identify the types of authentic texts which facilitate the pupils’ academic performances and the understanding of the target culture.
