Questions & AnswersHello my name is Hakeem Lavelle I am here on behalf of Expert Village to do a how to video on teaching a foreign language. We have reached a portion now where you have my favorite cross hybrid. I call him the multi lingual. The multi lingual is the person who speaks more then one language and yet you are trying to teach this person a language either that he knows or a language that he doesn't know. The advantages to the multi-lingual is that in his mind there isn't one language. There is more than one way to express sound and to communicate so that barrier is automatically eliminated with the multi lingual. The challenges of eyes are depending on multi lingual situation if he is in a situation where he speaks the language that you are teaching but, he speaks it from a colloquial perspective or from a dialect prospective meaning that he speaks maybe a different dialect then you are teaching then it may be a challenge to convince him that you have something to offer or you may be in a situation where there is multilingual may speak the language that you are talking about but he blends it with other languages similar to it. So now you have to weave it in. so either way you have to get him to buy into what you are doing. You have to let him know that somewhere Mr. Multilingual speaks many different languages. Somewhere you are missing out on something that I can fill the gap in. thank you!
