The document summarizes the Community Language Learning (CLL) approach to teaching second languages. [1] CLL emphasizes interaction as both the means and goal of language learning. [2] In CLL, the teacher takes the role of counselor and students are clients. This creates a trusting relationship where students can express themselves in their native language at first before transitioning to the target language. [3] Activities include translation, tape recording of language chunks, group work, and student reflection, with the goal of helping students gain independence in the target language.

LANGUAGE LEARNING (CLL)

3. Saying :
“We are each gifted in a unique and important way. It is our
privilege and our adventure to discover our own special
light.”
“After all these years, I am still involved in the process of self-
discovery. It's better to explore life and make mistakes than to
play it safe. Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full
life.”
“The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are
ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the
destination.”
