Community Language Learning (CLL) is a humanistic approach to language teaching developed by Charles Curran that focuses on the emotional and social aspects of learning. It views students as whole people and the teacher as a counselor. CLL emphasizes that learning is a personal and creative process, and that students learn at different paces using various strategies. It promotes a relaxed environment where students feel secure taking risks, sees the native language as part of the learning process, and prefers group work and cooperation over competition.
