What you will learn
In this TEFL Webinar on teaching functional language, the speaker discusses the importance of teaching functional language to English learners and provides tips and techniques for incorporating it effectively into lessons.
Functional language is the language we use to perform various functions, such as making requests, giving advice, or apologizing. It is essential for effective communication, as it helps learners navigate everyday situations and interact with others appropriately.
By incorporating these tips and techniques into their lessons, teachers can help learners develop the functional language skills they need to communicate effectively in English. This will enable students to navigate everyday situations with greater confidence and ease, ultimately leading to more successful interactions and a richer language learning experience.
