Pitfalls in the Teaching of a Lesser Taught Language.
Cook, Manuela
Language Learning Journal, n9 p66-67 Mar 1994
Discusses problems surrounding the teaching of Portuguese in the United Kingdom. The traditional low profile of Portuguese teaching has produced a vicious circle of scarcity of both material and human resources for this language. However, as satisfied students conquer the language at an advanced level, some will eventually pass on their knowledge and skills as teachers of Portuguese. (CK)
