  • Learning a language can be a challenging activity for some people due to the skills and systems of the language that they have to learn. Besides that, learners have to face the reality when having a conversation in a real life situation. Real life situations with native speakers imply not only speaking the language but only the culture. Culture is not only traditions or customs but also the social status, the gender, age and thoughts are involved. Therefore, culture should be taught while teaching a language to let learners have an idea about how to behave when facing a real life situation. For that reason, culture takes more importance when teaching a language and each day, more textbooks, didactic material and teaching approaches are including it.
