Summary:Learning a second language is often a challenge as it requires a change of logic in the waysentences are built or expressions are transmitted. Thus, it is common to start with the introduction ofgrammar rules and present new vocabulary to link it with the first or native language of the learner.This can be successful, but it can also be difficult since people usually compare their languagecomposition with the configuration of the one they are learning. As a result, they may feel frustrated,afraid of communicating their ideas in the new language, and insecure about their pronunciation ortheir abilities in general. Therefore, as a foreign language teacher, it is important to create a stable andsupportive learning environment so that students feel confident about their process.
