seriously this is amazing. I don't know any Spanish and never learned it, yet I understand perfectly what you were talking about when it came to Justin Bieber hahaha. This approach is so awesome
Why can't schools teach this way? I spent 5 years in school learning French, and my daughter has spent 3 years, also learning French. Neither of us can speak French, nor can anyone else I've met who learned a foreign language in school. Apparently, schools have learned nothing about teaching languages in 40 years. I learned more German in 3 months traveling in Germany than I'd learned after 5 years of French.
Gah 👌🏻this was so good !! I’m really wanting to learn a language! I’m leaning towards German. This method was something I always thought of so when I saw your video explaining acquired language I was YES!! Also, I’ve always been told you can’t teach an old dog new tricks, you’ve blown that saying out of the water ! Cheers 👏
Hi Professor Brown. Your TPRS really changed my view on learning language. I am still confused with this class method however and I was wondering if you can explain what you are doing in writing? Plus, sentences you wrote on the board, what are they? Is that what you were asking the class? Little more explanation would clarify my problem. Thanks in advance.
Great. What is written on the Ss' papers? When and why do they show it to you... Meaning what? I'd love to get some TPRS workshops. Are there online? And BTW... Why are you not providing some, professor Brown? You have a talent! :)
I liked how TPRS fits well with immersion (as you didn't speak any English). Also, having the chart of words on the board is great to refer to. Also I liked how you gave students question words to hold up and 'interact' with you.... And how you asked for responses to easy questions like numbers. I wonder how you keep the story going or do you already have an idea of how the study is going to turn out?
When I was "new" I kept a story in my pocket. Sometimes I did scripted stories that I "wrote out" ahead of time. Now, I do 100% "ask" stories and let the students "lead" the stories. But a lot of times students don't lead well so I always have to be ready.
Thanks for this demonstration. I am trying to develop a class where my Japanese students can actually learn English skill as opposed to 15 tons of grammar. I can’t use this as-is, since the students are to shy to stand in the front of the class and be Justin Bieber, but I will have to find a way to adjust it. Maybe with PowerPoint.
This is really interesting, and awesome video! But as I'm trying to hear the professor, it's hard to hear due to the distance of the mic & music doesn't help :'( but still grateful for this video! Thank you!
This is a great example of TPRS. Thank you. Could you write a step by step in addition? How many commands, how many words from a magazine and how many words from a storybooks and at what stage do you introduce I+1 method but how. After the session, how should I revise and review ? How often should I review ? Do I recite them? Try to memorize them out loud? By the way, do you have an video TPRS on Mandarin?
I see the teacher giving a show in Spanish, but I would like to see the point where the students speak Spanish. Obviously, they can understand these sentences, but if you ask them to speak them it will be more difficult. Like I studied Italian but I ended up understanding Italian and not being able to speak it or write it. I see in this video a lot of English on the board. Maybe a more advanced level of this method on a video would also help. This is a very basic level.
You don't understand the point of the video. These are basic basic students they are babies in Spanish learning. They don't need to speak right now like babies don't born speaking. Your Italian problem is up to you, I learnt English speaking with family and friends, no grammar, only repeating sentences. You learned Italian with grammar?🤔
I'm looking for instructions, in spanish, that describe the TPRS methodology and fundamentals that I can give to a prospective spanish teacher in a language trade. Something that says here's how you can help me and how I'll help you. I know a few spanish speakers in an ESL class, for example who might be up for this exchange. Does anyone know if such a guide exists?
Look up Adriana Ramirez from "TPRS Storytelling" youtube channel. She has 2 workbooks and plenty of online videos for how she applies the teaching method.
😂😂😂😂 great !!!... however, instead of “estupido”, “tonto” is commonly used. In addition, instead of “lleva pantalones cortos”, “usa shorts” is best. Congratulations professor. I liked this story telling session. Learning Spanish with Japanese accent 😂😂😂.
Hi it's funny that how languages are taught here is exactly this way. I've always loved our English, Chinese, and Filipino classes because of the stories we read and each class is entirely in the target language from Elementary to High-school, this was the case. I thought that this is how languages are taught all over the world. Now this class was super comprehensible to me since I started acquiring Portuguese 6 months ago and am conversational at a really basic level, introducing myself and talking about daily routines.
Soy hispano hablante nativo...y la verdad me pareció interesante la forma en que el profesor realiza su clase; se deja entender ya que al decir zapatos de tenis, un nativo hispano hablante sabe que se refiere a zapatillas deportivas....pobre Justin..jajajaja....buen modelo para la clase de ese dia....Saludos desde Sudamérica...mi deseo es poder aprender el idioma Inglés haciendo uso de la técnica del profesor.... en vez de "anduvo en bicicleta", sería mejor "montar bicicleta" ya que es bicicleta estacionaria el que hay en el Gym, pero se deja entender el mensaje que desea trasmitir. En el mundo hispano hablante la medida de peso es Kilogramo,lo que es Libra para el mundo anglo parlante. Mis felicitaciones al profesor......

@@elledarling33 Hi. Don't tell anyone but I only tutor for free. I am available early Sunday evening if you like 5.00 pm - 6.00 pm. Email me jbrown@occ.cccd.edu
Hi. Thanks for your work. I recently bought TPRS textbook. And I was surprised to know, that Blaine Ray(author of TPRS) prefers translating words over gesturing and showing pictures. It seems to me as wrong, and I was disappointed because I spent 25 dollars on the book.
Translating is much faster. Plus some people might not get your drawings. One student may see a bird and another student a car. Translation is faster and crystal clear.
@@poly-glot-a-lot6457 Thanks a lot for your answer! But what's better if I do an online lesson for only one student? Gesturing/drawing vs translating? I ask this because I saw your learning sessions in your film, when you were acquiring Arabic.
Jeff? I guess you’re called, my dear teacher. I’d like to learn Spanish from you. Chinese is my mother tongue. Besides I acquired English and French; and three other Chinese dialects. I think Spanish is an interesting language to acquire; ez singing Spanish songs with the amazing trilling rrrrrrr...
As a native Spanish speaker, I can't hear any Japanese accent on him at all. He does have an accent, but it's more of a 'murican/euro accent, and not too heavy.
@@poly-glot-a-lot6457 yeah, my Mexican friend said you use it correctly in Mexican Spanish. We would never say it in Spain :-) Thank for this video, it has inspired me to learn German with TPRS. You are an amazing teacher, I wish we had teachers like u in Europe
@@kristianlykke Almost every Spanish speaking country has different words for tons of clothing and food items... Since they are closer to Mexico, that it probably why he chose the Mexican term.
@@kennywesley Yeah I realised. I talked to my family about it, and realised that a common word in the Americas for it. Not in Spain though. But my mother who watches telenovelas was like, 'you fool', hahah

Traditional schooling favors a farther, faster, stronger approach. "1000 words taught a semester" sells a lot better than "100 words learned".
This is so good I want to cry. So different from the way I have been teaching until now. Thanks for this awesome video!
LOVE TPRS. You must go to a TPRS workshop (I don't sell workshops, believe me.) It was life changing.

Gracias :)
Get rid of the background music please your show is good thanks
I'm learning Spanish myself and I would love to see more of your class taped
Is very usefull to actually see a lesson where tprs is used. Better than just a technical explanation of how to do it
This stupid music drives me crazy. Is it necessary?

Good technic Jeff, TPR teach visually student, and that a good idea too to delegate the action to another person, so you can focus entirely on student
What is that delegation?

G. Goni I am researching TPRS right now and just saw some videos from a channel called Hit Chinese with Mandarin TPRS.

Great demonstration!
Tiny suggestion: background music got repetitive after a while and made it harder to focus on content. Just a thought for future videos. Loved this!

Teaching proficiency through reading and storytelling
How to make the story since you don't have any textbook
Is he trying to speak spanish with a Japanese accent? :P
Patrick K 😂😂😂😂
Spanish and Japanese have similar phonology.
As a native Spanish speaker, I can't hear any Japanese accent on him at all. He does have an accent, but it's more of a 'murican/euro accent, and not too heavy.
Why music?!
I made 60 seconds in but the music made it impossible to watch.
Content is great but I cant hear what he is saying because of the music.
Actually I had to stop watching, the music is really annoying. But I am going to have to find a TPRS Spanish class, this is how I want to learn.
Por favor, sin musica la próxima vez. No puedo escucharlo.
Could'nt understand what they are saying becaus of the backround music.Very distracting .
