Chart a Path for Language Success
Are you excited to minister in another culture, but worried about learning the language of the people you are going to serve? A new culture and a new language will change you and your family in dramatic ways. But in this book, Jan Dormer, veteran missionary and language learning specialist, dispels common myths about second language acquisition (SLA) and shares a hopeful outlook.
Language Learning in Ministry is essential for learning a new language. With chapters on both formal and informal language learning to guide the selection of language schools, programs, and methodologies, Dr. Dormer walks you through the options, opportunities, and challenges ahead.
Special attention is given to:
Viewing language learning through a ministry lens
Language development of children and families' needs, including schooling options and opportunities for MKs to learn the local language
Personal application-walking readers through decision-making processes to chart a path for success in language learning
Rich resources, such as language proficiency scales, language learning methodologies, and online resources
A task-based language learning curriculum that can be adapted to any language
Do not let language learning be a desert of waiting, but rather a launchpad for ministry opportunities. Utilizing the knowledge and guidance provided in this book will minimize your stress, increase the potential for your success in acquiring a new language, and fuel your ministry.
