CLIL Methodology

 

Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) requires a teaching based on  the awareness of the need to teach, in a foreign or second language, relatively complex contents to people who do not speak that language as their mother tongue.  The ideal CLIL teacher is graduated and certified to teach both a subject and a foreign language.  Given the difficulty of finding this type of teacher, the solution could be the co-teaching, collaboration between content and  language teachers or, in higher education, linguistic and methodological formation of teachers of non-language subjects.  The methodological component is a key element since we need to know how to teach that particular subject but also how to pay attention to the foreign language with language support activities.
