About the Event
Navigate the multi-level Cantonese heritage classroom. This essential professional development webinar directly addresses the variability among heritage language learners. We will begin by reviewing standard proficiency scales (like ACTFL/CEFR), and then critically examine how their criteria can be adapted to better reflect Cantonese linguistic structures. Attendees will gain a customized framework for assessing Cantonese heritage learners, along with foundational strategies for addressing proficiency differences in instruction. Join us today to strengthen your ability to assess student proficiency and refine your approach to teaching your diverse Cantonese heritage learners.
