This method was proposed by Charles Curran, it focuses on speaking and states that peers are needed to learn with and from them, and also it uses authentic material, meaning that it is not designed for teaching purposes

This method doesn´t require lesson planning which allows the session to flow and gives the students and teacher the chance to integrate interesting topics, however, there's the risk of not handling time well. On the last class we discussed about the community language learning and it was fun. Learning in a community is awesome. Working as a team with my classmates is always great. We disscuss some topics that each group chose. Our topic was childhood memories where we talked about many things that we went through as kids. We recorded the stories and we watch the video and also create some questions. We had the opportunity to work with Authentic Material, which is material that is not designed for teaching purposes
