Learning & Acquisition of English

Iris Roa | iroa@ucsc.cl

"This course introduces us into the process of learning and acquiring English as a second language. Throughout the semester, a set of different approaches and methods to teach English are presented in order to create learning opportunities that will allow us to analyze the acquisition characteristics of each ability and system of the language.

The main objective of this course, is for us to obtain real scientific foundations that will serve as a backup when performing as teachers. This knowledge will become the scientific argument for our criteria when the time comes to teach our students".
