The Languages Company

Using the target language – in particular by learners – is a critical issue for language learning and teaching, which has recently been highlighted by OFSTED. At a London seminar colleagues from schools, Universities and national agencies met to discuss  both the theoretical and practical aspects of the question in relation to language learning and teacher training.

Contributors included  Bernardette Holmes. Do Coyle, Itesh Sachdev, Pam Haezewindt and Lid King.  Following the seminar a document will be finalised and used for further work over the coming months.   If you are interested in learning more please contact  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
