Publisher's Synopsis
Every teacher in the world is looking for effective ways to motivate students. Total Physical Response in First Year Spanish does exactly that because your students understand everything you are saying in Spanish immediately in the first five minutes of the class. You will hear your students whisper, "Wow! I was afraid of this class, but I understand everything he is saying in Spanish. I think I can actually learn Spanish!"
What makes the Total Physical Response in First Year Spanish unique is the teacher becoming the director of a play in which the students are actors. Actors are intelligent; they understand what the director wants in one or two demonstrations.
The author, Dr. Francisco Cabello, has been successful convincing students of all ages that they can actually learn Spanish. This is one of the most popular books we have ever published for teachers who want day-to-day activities that keep students interested, engaged, and experiencing success!
If you are new to TPR, Dr. Cabello recommends Learning Another Language Through Actions by Dr. James J. Asher, the originator of the Total Physical Response, known worldwide as TPR. Then follow-up with a fine book by Ramiro Garcia entitled Instructor's Notebook: How To Apply TPR For Best Results.
