The Power of Stories in Language Learning

Stories are a dynamic way to provide input and elicit output from students within a controlled context. Storytelling is not only a powerful way to increase a student’s verbal capacity, it is also a compelling connection to culture. This session aims to provide participants with engaging story activities and templates that can be immediately implemented in daily lessons to make stories more accessible for students while reducing the stress and workload of teachers.

This page contains the slides and handouts from my presentation at CCFLT 2025 in Loveland, CO.

A recording of the session is available on YouTube.
