Morning Session:
How to apply classic TPR
for best results
30 states have abandoned a foreign language for high school graduation.
Parents would be thrilled if their children could acquire languages, but from their own disappointing experience in school, they concluded that it is enormous work for a meager gain. Here is how we can turn it around.
You will witness a “live” demonstration in Arabic, Spanish, and Japanese. I will show that students of all ages including adults can move on the fast-track with zero stress to acquire multiple languages. Then a Q and A session to answer all your questions about TPR.
Afternoon Session:
How to apply TPR Storytelling
for best results
I will follow Dr. Asher with an actual set of cartoon pictures from my first book to share tips and tricks for making storytelling work for any teacher in any classroom in any language.
You will discover:
• the “missing link” that is absolutely necessary to make TPR storytelling work for you.
• that gestures alone are not enough for successful storytelling.
• how storytelling works with upper level students in high school and the university.
