Approach, Method, and Technique in Second Language Learning

Approach

Philosophy about teaching and learning a second language. Principles concerning the nature of language.

Method

System of principles and rules about learning a second language. The overall plan for the instruction of the target language, which is strictly based on and consistent with the selected approach.

Technique

Implementational. It is any activity that actually takes place in the classroom in harmony with the preferred method.

Total Physical Response

Parents have “large body conversations” with their children. The parent instructs, and the child physically responds to this. Even though it can't speak during this time, the child is taking in all of language. The teacher then says the command and the students all do the action. Repeating this a few times. The students are standing in a circle around the teacher. It works well with mixed-ability classes. It doesn’t require a lot of preparation or materials. It lifts the pace and the mood. “Simon says”. You need to adapt the language according to the level. It would become repetitive.

M

Suggestopedia- a relaxed mind and comfortable atmosphere. Grammar TranslationM- it emphasizes grammatical structures rather than communicative ability. The learner remains in the mother tongue all the time, due to translation involving 1L. The DirectM- it is based on phonetics and scientific grammar. Foreign language learning was similar to 1L acquisition. Grammar used frequently in daily life, association of ideas. AudiolingualM-interpretation of learning in terms of stimulus and response, operant conditioning and reinforcement focus on pronunciation.

A

T

TheT of Multiple Intelligences- a set of skills that enable a person to resolve problems, ability to create. Verbal-Linguistic, Logical-Mathematical, Musical-rhythmic, Bodily-Kinaesthetic, Visual-spatial, Intrapersonal-introspective, Interpersonal-social, Naturalist.
