Providing Comprehensible Input
to Get the Output

Comprehensible input helps students acquire language naturally and fosters learning environments where students can engage with language in meaningful, context-rich ways. Learners need to experience comprehensible language repeatedly before they can build on it and produce output. This session will look at why providing comprehensible input for our students is so important. We will share some strategies and lesson ideas for you to build your students’ proficiency.
