    During the pre-Valentine's day #langchat, participants were sharing the resource love by talking about some of the best ways to incorporate native language speaking interactions into the classroom. Not only were some of the best online apps discussed, but the virtues of old-fashioned pen-pals were extolled and some excellent tips were shared from teachers who have years of experience managing native language speaking activities.

    This is a publication of The Council of Europe, " The Council of Europe has a long and well established tradition of developing consensus on the aims and guiding principles of language teaching. Through its programmes of activities and publications it continues to pursue the development of language teaching to meet the needs of the contemporary world. Among its most recent initiatives in this tradition are the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages providing guidelines for teaching, learning and assessment, and the European Language Portfolio which allows learners to plan and reflect upon their learning, and to chart and describe their proficiency. There has also always been a concern to help teachers develop their theory and practice, for example by organising seminars and interaction networks and by publishing compendia which offer examples of good practice." This guide direct teachers to use language as a means to intercultural understanding.
