CLIL for Teachers

CLIL METHODOLOGY TRAINING

CONTENT AND LANGUAGE INTEGRATED LEARNING

In CLIL lessons, the foreign language becomes the means of learning content. Students feel more motivated to learn the language because they are actually doing something with it, rather than dealing in some of the rather tired phrases and topics that old-fashioned language lessons tend to turn up. We believe that CLIL, along with Formal Instruction and Study Abroad programs, are the perfect combination for SLA. Learn CLIL with us and add it to your teaching professional skills.

 

In a CLIL lesson, all four language skills should be combined. The skills are seen thus:

  • Listening is a normal input activity, vital for language learning

  • Reading, using meaningful material, is the major source of input

  • Speaking focuses on fluency. Accuracy is seen as subordinate

  • Writing is a series of lexical activities through which grammar is recycled.
