Based on the importance of feedback in learning process, this study aims to find out and to implement the appropriate feedback in learning language. This work attempts to investigate developing teachers and students’ giving and receiving feedback effectively. In this study it was also attempted to investigate the impact of feedback on language learning process. Additionally, this analysis highlights several feedback patterns explaining the different contributions to the learning process. Finally, this paper is used to suggest ways in which feedback can be used to enhance its effectiveness in classroom. Accordingly, we believe that using effective feedback in the class make learners feel comfortable to communicate effectively in different social situations
