- Counseling-Learning (CLL) is a language teaching method developed by Charles Curran that applies psychological counseling techniques to learning. The teacher acts as a counselor and students are clients. - In CLL, interaction begins with dependent learning as students say what they want in their native language and teachers show them how to say it in the target language.
