Educational linguistics is the application of linguistics to the teaching of languages. Language acquisition contains mysteries. Why do some people “pick up” languages so easily? What is the difference between learning one’s native language and acquiring a second language later in life? Can the same methods be used to teach all languages? What is the proper mix of academic study and language practice?
Educational linguistics is the multidisciplinary study of language education. It includes theoretical and practical studies of language acquisition and language pedagogy. Language teachers with a strong background in linguistics are able to create lessons and curricula best suited to the needs of their students.
