Taking on the challenge of learning a new language can be scary, especially when practicing it with people who might be more fluent than you! You are somehow afraid of being vulnerable in front of other people!
We are all afraid of making mistakes or of being read as not intelligent enough!! But embracing vulnerability is the first step to language learning! We have to be understanding with ourselves and our difficulties and mistakes, and, that way, our vulnerability won't be overwhelming, and it'll actually push us forward in our language learning experience!
In this activity, I asked students to create a project which would help language learners embrace their vulnerability and the challenge of speaking up in class! Take a look at the amazing video students have produced!
