Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Silent Way is the name of a method of language teaching devised by Caleb Gattegno. It is based on the premise that the teacher should be silent as much as possible in the classroom but the learner should be encouraged to produce as much language as possible.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Silent Way is characterized by its focus on discovery, creativity, problem solving and the use of accompanying materials. Richards and Rodgers (1986:99) summarized the method into three major features.

Detailed explanation-3: -However, there are some potential downsides to using the Silent Way as well. First of all, it can be quite frustrating for both teachers and students if not used correctly. If you don’t provide enough opportunities for students to practice speaking, they may never get comfortable with actually using the language.
