    Ağaç Yaşken Eğilir
    (Suleyman Demirel University, 2011) Esra CIG
    This article explores effective strategies for teaching young learners a foreign language, focusing particularly on how children naturally acquire their first language and how these processes can inform early foreign language instruction. Drawing on personal observations, developmental linguistics, and characteristics of young learners, the author emphasizes the importance of early and rich language exposure. The article discusses children’s innate abilities such as interpreting meaning through gestures, intonation, and context, as well as their creativity and imagination, which make them highly receptive to language learning. It highlights the role of multiple intelligences and the need to adapt teaching methods to diverse learner profiles. The author also shares practical techniques used outside the classroom to increase children’s exposure to English and enhance motivation through natural communication.

    Abstract. In modern society, a new education system is being formed and the acquisition of one or more foreign languages is becoming a priority, and it is seen as one of the tools for expanding professional knowledge and opportunities. In this regard, new educational methods appear for teaching a second language. One of them is the Content and Language Integrated Learning approach which is increasingly becoming one of the innovative approaches to teaching and learning foreign languages. However, there exist several issues related to the implementation process of the CLIL approach. Thus, this article aims to demonstrate the senior school students’ perceptions of CLIL. The research questions are concentrated on identifying the challenges that they face while applying the CLIL method and illustrating the benefits of this approach in the teaching and learning contexts. By investigating their attitudes and perceptions toward CLIL, it will be possible to search out solutions for challenges that students face during the CLIL lesson and to improve their skills.
