It is not new to say that language is everywhere. This human faculty allows us to interact in the world we live in. You express your needs, thoughs and emotions through language. When teaching and learning a second language we become aware of the internal and external processes involved in language comprehension and production. Our teaching principles should go according to this real use of the language and not only to learn the surface structure or grammatical competence. Teaching implies many different challenges and teaching a second language involves a double effort. I invite you to enjoy this opportunity to make explicit the inborn capacity of all human beings: learn a language. In the same way, I would like you to be very creative and meet the needs of your future students with dedication, enthusiasm, love and professionalism.
In this blog, I'll share some of the reflections written around language teaching and learning, both in English and Spanish. I invite you to follow the website of the English Department from the school where I work. http://www.mackayzine.cl/ Feel free to send comments :)
