MTB-MLE

Models of Multilingual
Education
Objective
 define what is Multilingual
Education

 discuss the Models of


Multilingual Education.

 appreciate the importance of


multilingual education in
teaching and learning
Multilingual
A person who speaks more than two
languages is called
'multilingual' (although the term
'bilingualism' can be used for
both situations).
Why is it important to be
multilingual?

It opens you up to new cultures


and to the fruits of diversity.

Speaking a second or third


language will boost confidence
and increase self-esteem.
Multilingual Education
Multilingual education
typically refers to "first-
language-first" education,
that is, schooling which
begins in the
Mother Tongue and
transitions to additional
languages
The Primary Goal of
Multilingual Education
The aim is to develop the
children's language skills
and encourage creativity.
When children first arrive
at the MLE school, they all
share a common language.
Components of Multilingual
Education (MLE)

Strong Foundation - research shows


that children whose early
education is in the language of
their home tend to do better in
the later years of their
education
Strong Bridge- an essential
difference between MLE programs
and rural "mother tongue
education" programs is the
inclusion of a guided transition
from learning through the mother
tongue to learning through
another tongue.
Multilingual in the
Philippines Education
Mother Tongue Based-Multilingual
Education (MTB-MLE) policy in the
Philippines involves implementation
of local mother tongues as the
language of instruction in
Kindergarten to year three (K -3),
with the official languages
(Filipino and English) being
introduced as the language of
instruction after grade three.

Models of Bilingual or
Multilingual Education

(Ball 2011)
Mother Tongue -Based Instruction

● The learning program is


delivered entirely in
children's L1.
Bilingual Education
● Two languages are used as the
media of instruction. This type
of instruction is also known as
'dual language instruction ' in
which children who speak both
minority and the majority
languages are taught in both
majority and minority/non-
dominant languages.
Mother Tongue- Based Bilingual
Education
● L1 is used as the primary
medium of instruction during
all the primary school. Then
L2 is introduced as a subject
of study to prepare children of
eventual transition to using L2
as the medium of learning in
some academic classes.
Transitional Bilingual /Multilingual
Education or (Bridging)
● This type of instruction is
aimed at planning a transition
for children to move from
learning inL1 to learning in
L2. Such transition can be done
abruptly after a few years or
after a longer period during
which the child has become
fully fluent academically in
his/her L1.
Maintenance Bilingual /Multilingual
Education

● Even after L2 has been


introduced, children are
instructed in L1 and L2. L1
continues, often as a subject
of study, to ensure ongoing
support for children to become
academically proficient in L1.
Immersion or Foreign Language
Instruction

● The entire education program in


a language the is new to the
child
Submersion

● Speakers of non-dominant
languages have no choice but to
receive education in a language
they do not understand. The
approach promotes subtractive
bilingualism.
