Collected data from semi-structured interviews were coded using content analysis method. In addition, Semi-structured interview tools were used in the qualitative section. A quantitative section questionnaire was prepared based on the variables identified in the qualitative section, including new teaching methods, traditional teaching methods, barriers to new teaching methods and teacher-students interactive communication, and distributed among primary school teachers using the available method.In total, 247 compete questionnaires were returned. Quantitative data were analyzed by Spearman correlation coefficient test. The results showed that traditional teaching methods do not play a role in teacher-student interactive communication, but new teaching methods as well as the barriers play a role in interactive communication between teacher and students.
