A good psycho-physical and emotional well-being of the student provide for a better motivation, and, of course, for a better performance. It happens often that teachers concentrate more in the fulfilment of the scholastic programme and neglect or consider it as a loss of time the issue of a positive climate and motivation of students. It goes without saying that learning implies the student's individual desire, besides the scholastic obligation. This desire which can be instinctive but sometimes driven from family, school and society, is often presented with obstacles during the school year, such as lack of interest, l...

In addition, this concept includes the anthropological perspective which encompasses the way of life, customs, traditions, beliefs, mindsets, principles, as well as abilities that the individual and the community in which he lives have developed. Further on, an analysis is provided of the concept of culture in glottodidactics and its importance in the program of studying a foreign language. The second part highlights the importance of learning culture and civilization in the foreign language classroom; this is a major task which every teacher and instructor should pay close attention to: when learning a foreign language it not only necessary to acquire knowledge of its morphology and syntax, but also to study aspec...

It began for the first time in the high school of foreign languages "Asim Vokshi", where only one language was taught as a foreign language despite the fact that other languages such as English, Russian, French were offered , too, and in 1979 German and Italian was also included. The introduction of Spanish language in 1979 was inevitable due to the necessity of using Spanish manuals. It is a known fact that Albania before the '90s was an isolated country with a communist regime and finding manuals for learning Spanish language was fairly difficult. It was impossible to find or to select an adequate manual as there was none. There was no market at all for Spanish books. You could not find Spanish manuals neither in the National Library nor in other regional libraries. In such a situation of total lack, the only source was the personal library of some Spanish people, Marxist- Leninist ones, the ...

It is a well-known fact that that audiovisuals are part of our everyday life for many decades, and lately they have been included in the learning process within the communicative approach, under the pressure of a greater importance of pragmatic and authentic communication. There are many benefits coming from their use in the FL classrooms in the neurolinguistic aspect. Recently, many suggestions have been provided on the implementation of audiovisual materials in the foreign language class, some special criteria teachers should take into consideration during the process, but also concrete examples of such materials used in FL classroom generally, and particularly in that of Italian language.

The presented didactic unit has been used for students of the Faculty of Foreign Languages, in Tirana, Albania and has aroused interest and motivation by building a spirit of teamwork and willingness to work further with units of this format. This occurs because learning a foreign language does not mean only knowing to speak or write it, to learn its grammar or vocabulary, it is obvious that to have a deep knowledge of a foreign language, it is also essential to be aware of the nation’s culture from which that language comes from. As a matter of fact one of the fundamental objectives of glottodidactics is precisely the awareness of th...

Teaching in classes with adults is radically different from teaching in classrooms with children and teenage, this occur because students typology to teach is quite another. Teaching adults is a topic which is not studied enough because the teaching for this age group is often taken for granted. So, while teaching children and adolescents we can find countless of studies that adults age does not enjoy this privilege. The branch that deals with the study of teaching adults is Andragogy. Teaching adults depends on many factors, as an adult that has a formative his own bag round which certainly we cannot overlook. Adults also need to be clarified about the objectives of teaching, because they need to know the values that will have the information that they would take in a certain course. In a language class with adults it has a great importance the role of teacher too. He is not the pedagogical t...
