Our most widely used teaching methods are TPR (total physical
response) based. The TPR method is highly effective at the
beginning level and a standard requirement in the instruction of
young learners. It is also a method that is accessible to a wide
range of teachers and learning environments.
Our methods involve a substantial amount of listening and
comprehension in combination with various "physical responses"
well before the learner begins to use the language orally. They
also focus on the ideas that learning should be as fun and
"stress-free" as possible and that it should be dynamic through
the use of physical activities such as games, songs,
role-playing and many other hands-on activities.
The TPR method of language teaching capitalizes on the way
children naturally learn language. It involves direct conceptual
teaching of language using a series of inter-connected sentences
that are simple and easy to perceive because the language being
used can be directly related to whatever the speaker is doing at
the time of immediate utterance (i.e., the actions and language
match each other).
