ACTFL's Proficiency Guidelines and Can-Do Statements

from Language Latte: A Podcast for World Language Teachers Hosted by Becky Morales

We are on episode 6, and today we are talking about ACTFL: American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages. We are looking at the mission of ACTFL and their role in supporting world language teachers. What are their Can-Do statements and proficiency guidelines and how can teachers use them in their classes? Today I am interviewing Victoria Gilbert, an experienced Spanish and French teacher who is the world language chair at a private K-8 school in New York City. Let's dive into the innovative, high-quality tools ACTFL has written to meet the needs of language educators and students, and then we'll take a look at how teachers can utilize them in class.
