 Is
the use of the first language in the
ELT classroom permissible? Does it help
or hinder the process of English language
teaching? These are some of the issues
surrounding the suse of L1 which are
seldom addressed or explored in teacher
training courses. Yet, when we walk
past ELT classrooms in Malaysia, we
often hear the teacher using the student's
first language to facilitate the process
of learning English. This course proposes
to address the issues surrounding the
use of the student's first language
to teach English. This workshop hopes
to uncover some of the beliefs and practices
surrounding the issue and discuss strategies
for minimising the use of the L1 in
the language teaching process.
