TOTAL PHYSICAL RESPONSE

 

CONCEPT

The method lies in the assumption that when an additional language is learned, this language is interrelated through code breaking, similar to the development of the first language, and this process allows for a long period of comprehension development before language production. 

OPINION

Because of this, students must physically respond to verbal commands to learn a foreign language.

Advantage:

• Easy to use in the classroom 
• It is not necessary to use the first language
• It reduces the pressure and stress of the students.
• Students acquire information for a longer time 

Disadvantages: 

• It is more useful for beginners.
• This method does not provide a way for the student to express his thoughts in a creative way.
