Language Teaching Methods: Community Language Learning 

So long as the students share a common native language (not the case here) then they can practice this method. Avoiding the use of the native language is a major point of some language teaching methods, but not this one.

One of them at 16:00 in the video is already B2. She is able to state her thoughts clearly.

Yes, I thought that too - they're actually pretty damn good for the level and the teacher isn't really modifying her language much either (just a bit slower and clearer than usual perhaps)

Yeah, but CLL takes into consideration the human aspect, which, in my opinion, communicative approach doesn't

What dynamic would that be? Also these students are at a high level to understand all if this abstract verbiage used by the teacher. Let's see this in languages other than English--oh suddenly everyone cries int the USA that English must be done at a harder level than Spanish, French, etc.

I think this is still CLL because the teacher is reflecting back what the students say, and does not analyse or critique it, and the teacher helps the students express what they wish to express, and pronounce it well. And the teacher uses the students' words as the focus words, although she tells them the topic and what to talk about. But this teacher is controlling the class more than the other description of CLL I've learned about. So... I'm not sure !

I think it's about level. Cll should have translation and more L1. But this class is not beginner and our books explain cll for beginners. Also tape too..

How is this cll this has nothing to do with cubing cll you solve the first layer and then use a single algorithm for oll and pll and its like getting a skip each time

Grammar could be "sprinkled" throughout the lesson. Depending on Student errors, or perhaps you could focus on a specific tense throughout the lesson. For example students sentences must be written in the past tense.

lol there are other uses of the initials CLL :)

In my opinion, it doesn't need to be translated. It can be done like the video, if you don't know the word, you explain it English. :)

@@anasoares1884 If I'm not mistaken L1 is tolerated in CLL if it helps "bridge gaps in meaning between the student's L1 and the TL". This thus differs from say the direct method (Berlitz) where it is to be avoided

@@hullcityafc72 they all speak english no mother tongue used.

How can u do this ?? I need to analyse 4 my project too.

​@@zainabkadhim4174 please could help me I have the same subject

@@cheerup4566 Ok I will c what I did and write my explanation 2 u ..

@@zainabkadhim4174 sooooo kind of you dear. Eagerly waiting for your reply

@@cheerup4566 i am so sorry for telling u that there is no copy writing of this task in my desk😔

Could you share it with me please

@@cheerup4566 lol?

She didn't have the extra 23 years of research nsight that you and I share. :) I feel like BS might be a strong term. But I do agree with you- I have PTSD so people standing behind me freaks me out quite a lot. I can just see it going both ways. I'm in a Methods class right now, and it seems like the big point of the 70s and 80s was getting rid of the 'Nun with a Ruler' method of punitive teaching and going with a softer approach. It definitely seems like the pendulum swung pretty far on this one.
