hypothesis.

8. Louise is a novice teacher and she thinks the Community Language Learning has several weaknesses. Discuss at 
least three of them: The lesson can take unexpected and even dangerous directions. The method is pitched directly

may awaken interpersonal hostilities that are difficult to control or channel into more positive directions. These may, 
in fact, destroy the very cohesion and solidarity which the method is supposed to create. There may also be 
difficulties in trying to use the approach with learners who, due to their previous learning experiences, may be 
antagonistic towards the teacher for taking a low classroom profile, and may express the belief that the teacher is 
not doing his/her job. If this method or any other were to be imposed on a group of unwilling learners, it would be 
highly unlikely that a positive climate will emerge.
