Vamos a explorar este tema. Vamos a divertirnos un poco con la pregunta y vamos a ver qué información encontramos dentro del campo de SLA para responder a esta pregunta.

 In this episode, I discuss the idea that there is a most difficult language to learn. I am sharing my thoughts on it with you, and I also bring information from the field of Second Language Acquisition to approach this question and see what we come up with.

En este episodio, exploro la teoría de la captación la cual aborda la noción de la importancia de notar partes de la lengua mientras recibimos un mensaje en la lengua que aprendemos. Un tema interesante que les puede ayudar a expandir su conocimiento sobre el aprendizaje de una segunda lengua según la investigación en el campo de SLA.

In this episode, I am having a conversation with my very good friend Katy entirely in French. Katy is an online language instructor. She offers private one on one, individuals lessons using Skype and other platforms that enable you to take online lessons. 

Katy also holds two master’s degrees: a master’s degree in Spanish and a master’s degree in French with an emphasis in what is called FLE which means “français langue étrangère” which is basically the equivalent of a TESOL M.A. or TESL M.A. but for the French language. 

In this episode Katy is sharing with us her experience teaching and learning languages so that you can learn from her experience as a language learner and as a language teacher. I hope that Katy’s experience can help you become a better language learner and a better language teacher.
