DE LA LAMA, MARIA
Biodata: Masters Degree in Applied Linguistics
and Bachelors Degree in Theoretical Linguistics
from the University of California; MBA Universidad
del Pacfico. Current Director at Centro de Idiomas
de la Universidad del Pacfico.
Abstract: Besides technology Whats new in
teaching English as a Foreign Language?
Research has shed light on the teaching-learning
process: which of the things we do in class promote
competence in a foreign language and which do not.
As teachers, we always seem too busy to catch up
on the latest research findings so we end up doing
things without knowing their real effectiveness.
The objective of this talk is to provide teachers with
some practical knowledge of the state-of-the art
methodology. Having a clear understanding of some
of the latest techniques can make a difference in our
everyday teaching.

important changes in the teaching practice in
order to satisfy the necessities of the students
who need to use the language for varied purposes
throughout their lives. In the current juncture CLIL
appears as the way forward but there is still much
doubt about the topic that should be dispelled.
