Through simple random sampling method, 45 participants were selected and a researcher-developed sale was used to collect the dat. The scale contained 24 items. To evaluate the reliability Cronbach Alpha (.86) was calculated and to ensure the validity of this scale, content validity was examined. Descriptive statistics (e.g. frequency, SD, means, T-test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests were conducted. SPSS 22 was used to analyze the data and findings showed that the factors to use eclectic method included teaching goals, Arabic language teachers’ capability, learners’ potential, classroom size and status, school atmosphere, equipment, facilities and infrastructures, learning media, and time availability.
