The Silent Way, part 1b: Silent Way for beginners, and Language is for expression (2)

Roslyn and Piers discuss the principles behind Gattegno's Silent Way. If you are a non-native speaker, you can slow down the audio by clicking on the 'settings' icon (gear wheel) and changing the speed to 0.75.
The Created Playlists on the Duo Flumina channel are videos of other people's work within Gattegno's wider pedagogical approach.
Roslyn and Piers produce language learning materials and train teachers through www.pronsci.com
Roslyn's website has further information on Gattegno's approach and the Silent Way: www.roslyn-you...
Piers's research on child speech development is summarised at sites.google.c...

Thanks a lot for this discussion, so rich for teacher's growth!

This exactly why people do immersions since it forces you to break free of translating, forces you to see, think, and express in the language.

[@RoslynYoungBouclans]

You're right. Silent Way is all about learning to speak, and speak well.
