Enhancing second language learning: The PFIAP model and its pedagogical implications

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this work is to introduce a comprehensive and sequential ped- agogical model for language teaching, known as PFIAP (perception, focaliza- tion, internalization, application and production). PFIAP aims to promote ef- fective second language learning. Relying on current educational theories and approaches the model comprises five sequential phases. By integrating crucial elements for effective L2 learning, such as active participation, metacognitive reflection and awareness, and practical application of language skills in real- life like contexts, the model exhibits its efficacy and potential. Additionally, a proposal is presented to illustrate how a particular grammatical feature could be integrated with a phonological aspect, thus exemplifying the practical im- plementation of the model in the EFL (English as a foreign language) class- room. Finally, some pedagogical implications are discussed, along with possi- ble limitations that could arise during its application.
