How are we teaching english in chile ?

According to the video "Escuela Arcangel  Miguel" the english learning should be in all moment, they have a programme that consist in three days on intensive english, this programme is " integral y transversal". It's similar to stay two or three month in the school. 

I think that this model of teaching english is better than the traditional form, children can reforced the concepts of english and they can to conquer the fear of to talk in other tongue.

What is Methodology ?

Methodology is a field of study that was born from the great quantity of methods derived from different theorical standpoints.
The heightened of the awareness in the literature about the significant role of the sociocultural context in which language education is occurring is so important.

Methodology denote the study of the system or range of methods that are used in teaching, while a method is a single set of practices and procedures.

According to Richards and Rodgers three levels describe Metods: approach, design and procedure.
