Abstract

Languages occupy a very important place in our lives. Knowing a language not only sets new linguistic strategies and skills for yourself, but it gives a perspective on cultural diversity. This allows intercultural communication, which leads to an increase in globalization and harmony among the universe. This chapter provides an overview of the origins of the plurilingual programs in Spain, and it also shares some of the challenges bilingual teachers face in the classrooms teaching in tri-plurilingual programs and the future of the tri-plurilingual education programs in Spain. Findings in the area of third language acquisition and trilingualism have contributed to a better understanding of multilingual processes and use. Third language teaching, in consequence, has been informed by various trends in research of multilingual acquisition, but is also challenged by these findings. This research explains some educational and sociolinguistic characteristics of multilingual teaching in Spain and gives priority to current research in the teaching language field.
