In the time of the world’s growing need for multilingualism it is necessary to examine all possibilities for teaching foreign languages in a faster and more efficient manner. Instead of passive users, we need engineers who actively use foreign languages. CLIL is an approach that insists on economization of time needed for foreign language acquisition. It does so by integrating a foreign language instruction into a non-linguistic subject matter, which increases students’ interest and motivation. The paper investigates English language speaking skills in an engineering CLIL classroom.
