FUNGLISH

Many teachers see CLIL as a more natural way to learn a language; when a subject is taught in that language there is a concrete reason to learn both at the same time. And as students have a real context to learn the language in, they are often more motivated to do so, as they can only get the most of the content if they understand the language around it. Moreover, being content focused, CLIL classes add an extra dimension to the class and engage students, which is especially advantageous in situations where students are unenthusiastic about learning a language. CLIL also promotes a deeper level of assimilation – as students are repeatedly exposed to similar language and language functions and they need to produce and recall information in their second language. Multiple subjects can be taught in English, so that students’ exposure to the language is increased, meaning their language acquisition is faster. CLIL also encourages students to develop 21st Century skills, including the ability to think critically, be creative, to communicate and collaborate.
