How can teachers-students and students-students interactions accelerate the speed of second language acquisition?
  

Top answer

Hi, How can teachers-students and students-students interactions accelerate the speed of second language acquisition? It's OK, except I'd say 'teacher' to acknowledge that there is one teacher in the classroom. However, you also need to be careful with such hyphenated phrases, as they are a kind of shorthand.
