Language teachers are often working to engage their students with grammar and vocabulary. But an added dimension of learning a language is understanding how different cultures view the world differently and the effect of culture on language. How can teachers become more aware of intercultural differences and help bring culture learning into the language classroom? In this engaging and interactive presentation, we will examine key concepts of intercultural communication and look at practical ways to help our students communicate more effectively when they interact with those from different cultural backgrounds.
This presentation is open to the public. Professors, bilingual teachers, school principals, English Teaching Assistants, and other professionals are encouraged to attend. Please confirm your attendance to americanspace.madrid@iie.es
