Modern Languages Research and Teaching Forum

The Modern Languages Research and Teaching Forum is designed to bring together teachers of modern languages at all levels to share good practice and discuss the challenges facing the sector, support language teaching and encourage pupils to continue to study languages and develop their confidence.

In addition to the personal benefits that come from having a command of a language other than your own, we know that language learning is increasingly important for young people, both as an employability asset and as the path par excellence to developing intercultural skills and empathy.

The Seventh Modern Languages Teaching Forum, Intercultural Communication & EDI in Language Education, took place on 3 June 2025. Catch up with the recording HERE.

More information about upcoming events and past fora, including resources and recordings, can be found in our main Forum page.

A mailing list has been set up to enable dissemination of information about Forum events and to support discussion. All those interested in the activities of the Modern Languages Research and Teaching Forum are welcome to join.

The Modern Languages Research and Teaching Forum is convened by Dr Wissia Fiorucci and Dr Alvise Sforza Tarabochia in the Language Centre at the University of Kent.
