Abstract

This study is included in the action-research of doctorate that I am carrying out on "The necessary professional competences of a CLIL teacher " that is developed in the field of Education of the University of La Laguna. The aim of the research is to study the necessary professional teaching skills for the CLIL teachers, in the context of the Canary Islands. Firstly, a summary is presented on the teaching field of CLIL and an analysis and a comparative study will be carried out on which subjects are appropriate for CLIL teaching, according to different models and contexts. Secondly, there will be some key axes to classify the teaching competences in relation to CLIL teaching, according to different proposals of experts in this subject and it will  be proposed a professional teaching competence that can act as a catalyst for the rest, teachers’ flexibility.

Keywords: CLIL, competences, subjects, flexibility, teacher.
