There are four important elements to when learning a new language. Get exposure to the second language, understand its meaning, understand how its constructed, and finally being able to use and practice. Vocabulary is important especially at an early stage to teach basic words needed to get by in the language. It's good to remember that as a rule, students receptive vocabulary is much larger than their productive vocabulary. Teaching correct grammar is important so students learn what the language means, how it's used, and how it is written verses said. Often spoken form will differ from a written format. Teaching language functions is also an important aspect, including how to appropriate the use of formal, informal, tentative, and technical uses of the language.
