PLURALISTIC APPROACHES: NON-VERBAL COMMUNICATION AND BODY LANGUAGE IN FRENCH COURSES

A pluralistic approach to languages and cultures is important in foreign language teaching. A major priority of a pluralistic approach to languages and cultures is to support expressive learning among learners. Therefore, learning body language and non-verbal communication in intercultural communication is as important as knowing other elements of communication. Teaching body language and non-verbal communication in a cross-cultural environment is to ensure effective and correct communication in the language. Thus, in foreign language lessons, the transfer of body language characteristics that may be specific to the cultures of the people who speak that language plays an important role in the effective acquisition of the language.
