Hello again little reader, this week we continued with presentations by my colleagues in which we had the opportunity to learn from them about the audio - lingual method which is also called the Army Method, the reason why it is called that. It is because it began in the Second World War, so that combatants could communicate with their allies or enemies.

This method emphasizes listening and speaking more than reading and writing.


Our classmates also explained about the direct method which, as we have already seen in previous classes, is called the natural method.



This method was established in Germany and France around the 1990s and was a contrast to GTM.

To end the presentations, a group spoke about The Silent Way method that was founded by the Egyptian mathematician Caleb Gattegno.

And on Thursday we took our midterm exam in which we tested the knowledge acquired during this first registration.

Stay with us, we still have a lot to learn.


See you soon!馃摎馃挮

Now, let’s talk about the characteristics each of these styles entails and how best to make use of them. 1. Visual Learning Style Visual learners are individuals who prefer to take in their information visually—be that with maps, graphs, diagrams, charts, and others. However, they don’t necessarily respond well to photos or videos, rather needing their information using different visual aids such as patterns and shapes. The...
