Dear Colleague,

If you are new to TPR, start with a solid background by reading my Learning Another Language Through Actions (6th Edition), and Ramiro Garcia’s Instructor’s Notebook: How to Apply TPR for Best Results (4th Edition). Next, pretest each lesson before you enter your classroom. Try the lesson out with your children, your friends or your neighbors. In doing this, you

  1. become convinced that TPR actually works,
  2. build self-confidence in the approach, and
  3. smooth out your delivery.

If you have experience applying TPR, you may have bumped into a plateau where students who were zooming ahead now seem to be disinterested. Time to re-read my Learning Another Language Through Actions to break through the plateau. The secret is this: With TPR you access the right side of the student’s brain to help each person understand a big chunk of the target language.

Next, use what they know to access the left side of the brain with a dialogue, a pattern drill, telling a story, making up a skit or playing a game. This will help your students move smoothly from one side of the brain to the other - which will keep them motivated day after day. another suggestion: Set short term goals that are of keen interest to students such as buying a bus ticket, calling a hotel, ordering breakfast, or directing a taxi driver to a location.

In our catalog you will find many, many TPR products that will help you break through
each plateau for exciting spurts upward on the learning curve.

Best wishes for continued success,
