Turning the Learning Disabilities into Opportunities
We live in a world, where foreign languages are important in several aspects of our daily life, from traveling, to better working positions. All people should have the opportunity to learn foreign languages, but special attention must be given to people with learning disabilities.
The TuDOrs project is aiming to give foreign languages teachers the skills and competences they need to effectively teach foreign languages to people with learning disabilities.
