L'enseignement d'une langue vivante seconde à des élèves créolophones : le cas de l'anglais à La Réunion

Abstract

Creole-speaking standing between French and the teaching of English as a second language, are the patterns of learning a foreign language still identical in the secondary schools of The Reunion Island? This paper describes an experiment conducted in six classes of first year students in a southern school of an ultra-marine exotic French department of the Indian Ocean. The objective was to compare the results of the six groups to those obtained by specialists such as D. Bailly in France a few years ago, knowing that Creole-speaking is supposed to be a major hindrance for the learners.
