In this episode we talk all about comprehensible input (CI), which you will see is a useful approach in teaching and learning any language. [sign up for Talking Points]

I am joined by John Bracey, a Latin teacher, who uses CI very effectively with his students. He also makes a strong case for all teachers to try out CI, including Latin teachers.

John speaks about...

  • his journey with CI and how he discovered it.
  • the linguistic benefits of CI.
  • using CI to personalize language and connect with and validate students’ lived experiences.
  • what CI looks like in his classroom.
  • why Latin teachers should use CI.
