Why home language matters: Translanguaging in English language learning [webinar]

What is translanguaging? And is it an effective way to encourage English language learning?

We’ll be answering these questions and more in our panel webinar exploring how harnessing home languages can transform the learning process.

Hosted by FlashAcademy® with experienced EAL leads from UK and international schools, we’ll examine what the evidence tells us about translanguaging, why home languages might be the missing piece in your EAL strategy – and how you can start using it in your classroom today.

Attendees will come away with:

• An understanding of translanguaging and why it matters in English language learning

• Deeper knowledge of how using home languages can unlock the potential of your learners

• Practical classroom strategies to start using translanguaging approaches straight away

Panellists:

• Lukasz Mlodziniak, EAL Coordinator at Lipson Cooperative Academy

• Kate Fletcher, EAL Leader at Mamoura British Academy
