This is interesting stuff! I work as a teacher of Swedish for immigrants (SFI) and often use activities described here. For example, I let students come forward and act out a Swedish everyday situation, like waiting in line, or returning a purchase to the shop, meeting a neighbour in the shared laundry room... like a role play. I've read about suggestopedia which has a similar approach. But this describe pretty well what I do and it really does the trick.

Glad you found the video useful! The Direct Method is an excellent way to teach students.

You are amazing at making these videos Lela. They are very helpful especially with new tutors.

If you only focus on a method you are heading for failure. Traditional methodologies have been proved to be a waste of time in terms of getting real skills to use a language for what a language is mainly meant to. That is, to speak in fluently in real contexts of interaction. So we must aim to use different methods,: direct, teaching grammar but in a metacognitive and conversational way,. We must put into practice the knowledge coming from Neuroscience in the field of the acquisition of a foreign language. We have to implement a holistic and conversational approach that lets us a balanced combination between contextual learning and adquisition. Despite a pure acquisition is not available when it comes to the process of learning of a foreign language, there are some interest aspects involved in it that can be used in an efficient way.

PLEASE, PLEASE , MAKE MORE VIDEOS WITH THE REST OF THE METHODS, THE AUDIOLINGUAL METHOD, SO IMPORTANT, AND ON YOU TUBE IS SO BADLY EXPLAINED BY INDIAN PPL, AND THE GRAMMAR TRANSLATION METHOD, AND ALL THE REST OF THE METHODS, PLEASE, YOU WOULD GET LOADS OF VIEWS AND LIKES !! THANKS POR POSTING THIS VIDEO, WE LOVE YOUR VOICE!! ARE YOU FROM CALI , BY ANY CHANCE? KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !! I SUSCRIBED!!

Dice are a very good suggestion, thank you.

Your wonderful smile and welcoming energy is the best proof that the direct way is very useful :)

Great information and ideas! Thank you for sharing!

My English teacher in primary school used the direct method, it was a time when teachers in Norway still had a lot of freedom in how to teach. For me it helped immensely. I didn't realize how much it helped until I started learning German in fifth grade, with the "traditional" method (memorizing lists of dictionary words and grammar mnemonics etc.)

How did you create your virtual background?

@ALO7English

Teacher Lela has the wall in her office painted green and in this video she was using the pro version of Zoom, which has the option to use virtual backgrounds with the use of a green screen.

my approach is to change the OS of your computer to the target language (and make sure that there is option to switch over)

Is the direct and natural approach the same ?

Where is the difference to the audiolingual methods?

@lelaschavers4943

5 жыл бұрын

While the two methods are similar in that neither uses the native language, the Audio-lingual method is based on behaviorist theory and focuses more on grammar by repetition instead of learning target vocabulary using visuals and TPR.

One die. Not dice.

When.ppl smile all the time en have a high pitched voice, they are very impatience and not hounest.

Tnx for your explanation
