This thesis illustrates that using the “Socratic questions” method can be very effective in developing critical thinking skills among language learners. A recent pilot study conducted with 30 participants demonstrated that the treatment group outperformed the comparison group. Engaging with this particular approach helped students to think systematically and swiftly in order to achieve their desired results.
