I am honored by this prestigious award. It is especially meaningful
to me because it is being presented by language professionals
whom I respect and admire. The members of NCOLCTL are clearly
among the most intelligent and capable people in the world. You are
the experts who know and understand the challenges associated with
language teaching and language learning.
nd because of this educational deficiency, they have naïve perceptions
about language. For instance, most of the general public
believes that:
– Every English word has an exact match in every other
language – and vice versa.
– Second language learning is simply a relexification
process.
– High levels of language competence can be attained in
two years of school classes…or perhaps in a few weeks if a
computer program is used. |
