Learner Rights and Language Teaching


Hector HAMMERLY

ABSTRACT

Based, in part, on the work of earlier scholars, the paper  discusses the issue of students' needs and rights in terms of language learning. These rights are regarded as inherent to human beings and include five categories: (1) The right to curricular choice (including the right to chose a language or language skill); (2) the right to the conditions that make success possible (including qualified teachers and programs); (3) the right to be fully helped during the program (including systematic guidance, adequate feedback and access to linguistic resources); (4) the right to enlightened, balanced teaching (based on intelligent eclecticism); (5) and the right to continuity for linguistic maintenance (avoiding interruptions in their studies).
 
KEY WORDS: learner rights; linguistic rights, foreign languages,teacher education, autonomy.
