    “Use of Suggestopedia as an Innovative Strategy for promoting Effective Reading Comprehension abilities in English at the ESL level” An Experimental Study *Kuncham Venkanna Senior Research Fellow in English, The English & Foreign Languages’ University, Hyderabad **Ann Glory P.S M.A. (English), M.Ed. Hyderabad India ABSTRACT The main aim of language learning and teaching, in the modern world, is helping learners to learn and improving the processes of learning. One of the techniques of language teaching, which is an outcome of the Communicative Language teaching (CLT), is Suggestopedia. The present article aims to find out the effectiveness of Suggestopedia as an innovative strategy for enhancing reading comprehension abilities and for promoting effective classroom practices in an ESL context. The article first lists out the major features of the strategy. It discusses the role of the strategy for effective language teaching in an ESL/EFL context. The article presents review of related literature such as concepts, theories and framework for the study in the next part of the article. This study first presents general reading comprehension abilities of ESL learners through a pre-test. Later, the paper lists out the impact of the strategy for enhancing reading comprehension abilities of ESL learners through an intervention. The results are analyzed, interpreted and discussed by employing appropriate statistical measures. Finally, the findings of the present study and suggestions for the further research are presented. KEY WORDS: Suggestopaedia, Reading comprehension abilities, classroom processes, and ESL context. www.ijellh.com 128 Introduction In the twenty first century, English in the ESL/EFL context has become a global language.

  • ESL/EFL Teacher Training and Peripheral Social Contexts
    Forum on Public Policy Meeting the Demand for TESL/TEFL Teachers: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Increasing Program Accessibility and Effectiveness Catherine A. Smith, Heidi E. Vellenga, Marian Parker and Norman L. Butler Catherine A. Smith, Assistant Professor, Troy University Heidi E. Vellenga, Dept. of English, PhD Candidate in Applied Linguistics. Northern Arizona University Marian Parker, Associate Professor, Dept. of Curriculum & Teaching, Troy University Norman L. Butler, Lecturer in English, Dept. of Foreign Languages, AGH University of Science and Technology Abstract This paper assembles innovative ideas from several disciplines and offers an integrated discussion for improving TESL/TEFL curriculum design, specifically for individuals from peripheral social contexts and to address the global demand for ESL/EFL teachers. Overall, the suggested innovations serve to: 1) increase program accessibility to individuals who might not otherwise pursue professional development and/or continuing education, and 2) enhance instructional effectiveness by including instructional topics and techniques which support novice and nonnative English teachers. Adjustments to admission practices, instruction practices, and long-term professional support allow the program to reach a greater population of teachers to serve the ever-increasing worldwide demand for English teachers. A website available prior to, during, and after instruction allows participants to continue research projects, learn about professional development opportunities, and participate in a virtual community of TESL/TEFL professionals, regardless of their current teaching placement environment. More practically-focused instruction which is delivered via both on-site instruction and DL (distance learning) technology results in more competent teachers completing TESL/TEFL programs. The more practically-focused instruction incorporates recent language research and language teaching innovations from applied linguistics, multicultural literature, conflict communication strategies, and educational leadership.

  • The Silent Way, Community Language Learning, Suggestopedia, Psychodrama
    An Exploration Of Humanistic Methodologies Of Language Teaching: The Silent Way, Community Language Learning, Suggestopedia, Psychodrama Carmel Heah Lee Hsia Pusat Bahasa Universiti Malaya Introduction The purpose of this paper is to explore four unconventional methods of teaching languages: the Silent Way, Community Language Learning (eLL), Suggestopedia, Psychodrama or to give it its French name, 'Psychodramaturgie Linguistique.' They are often indiscriminately lumped together as 'fringe methodologies' and conveniently dismissed as 'gimmicky' I Ifads'. 'crazes'. their practitioners being referred to as being on the 'lunatic fringe' They are, in fact, quite different from each other, both in conception and in realisatjon. My interest in these methodologies came about as a result of a British Coun­ cil Course I attended in Canterbury, England, in 1983 In the course of two weeks, I was taught Greek by the Silent Way, German by CLL, Russian by Suggestopedia, and French by Psychodrama. The impressions gained stem from the necessarily limited viewpoint of the participant-observer, who tries to be a willing learner in demonstration lessons and, at the same time, an open-minded critic of the methods as a whole. I wililirst begin by identifying the basic features of the 'humanistic' move­ ment with which these methodologies are associated. Then the theory behind each methodology and the implementation of it in the classroom will be outlin­ ed, followed by a discussion of how theory and practice relate to each Olher and to humanistic language teaching as a whole. Finally, the differences bel­ ween these methodologies in their interpretation of humanistic principles will be outlined. Humanistic Language Teaching Most of the approaches which have been popular in recent years, and given the label 'humanistic' J have certain features in common.

  • Post-Method Era and Glocalization in Language Teaching and Learning Jesica Dwi Lusianov
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 509 4th International Conference on Language, Literature, Culture, and Education (ICOLLITE 2020) Post-Method Era and Glocalization in Language Teaching and Learning Jesica Dwi Lusianov Department of Linguistics, Faculty of Humanities, Universitas Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Language learning which develops in this post-global era of the industrial revolution 4.0 cannot be separated from post- methods. The post-method era is a condition that has been occurring in our current language education in which there are various efforts to reconstruct the relationship between theories and practices of methods (and approaches) based on contexts. In short, the post-method era enables teachers to construct classroom-oriented theories of pedagogical practice instead of knowledge-oriented theories of pedagogy. As a result, the post-method condition can lead to what is called “glocalization” (not “globalization”) in language pedagogy. The global principles, designs, procedures, and techniques of methods and approaches that the Western theorists have made are implemented grounded on what local teachers need, want, and experience in the classroom, thus the colonialism or marginalization which places the teachers as the passive consumer of the theorists’ methods and approaches does not happen. This glocalization in English teaching and learning, which is to do with post-methods, can influence or be practiced in many aspects, especially in interlanguage and culture, individual differences, and learning strategies. This paper reviews and highlights that post-method condition is related to glocalization in English language teaching and learning practices in terms of interlanguage and culture, individual differences, and learning strategies.

  • Suggestopedia’ Vs
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 6, No. 4; April 2016 A Relative Comparison Made of Two Teaching Methodologies: The Examples of ‘Suggestopedia’ vs. Total Physical Response Paul C. Talley, Ph.D. I-Shou University International College – Department of International Business Administration No. 1, Section 1, Syucheng Road Dashu District Tu, Hui-ling Tajen University Department of Applied Foreign Languages No. 20, Weisin Road Sin-er Village, Yanpu Township Pingtung County (907), Taiwan, R.O.C. Abstract The necessity to offer comparative teaching methodologies is a reality most teachers face in the classroom setting. No two students comprehend language arts in the same way because of previous learning experiences, temperament, and expectations. As a result, teachers must frequently choose between two or more second language teaching methods to effectively address students’ needs. This paper uses a comparison made between Total Physical Response and Suggestopedia methods as an example of how to choose a practical approach to teaching. The ability to consider traits, strengths, weaknesses, and results in an evaluative manner can help teachers to gain insight in order to determine which method is most effective for teaching language and then to recognize the similarities and differences between these methods. The methods examined in this paper in no way reflect the only approaches open for instruction. It is hoped that a generalized teaching approach which blends the best of many teaching methods may be adopted, adapted, and considered for purposes of instruction. Introduction A relative comparison of two “innovative” methods (Larsen-Freeman, 2000) or “designer methods” (Nunan, 1991) of second language teaching can be made using Total Physical Response (TPR) and ‘Suggestopedia’ as working models.

    TEACHING ENGLISH TO SPEAKERS OF OTHER LANGUAGES “This volume, by a highly experienced and well-known author in the fi eld of ELT, takes readers directly into classroom contexts around the world, and asks them to refl ect on the teaching practices and the theoretical principles underpinning them, and to engage in questions and discussions that occupy many teachers in their own teaching contexts.” — Anne Burns, UNSW, Australia “. a fresh look at the craft of TESOL, ideally aimed at the novice teacher. In an interactive approach, Nunan shares theory and engages readers to refl ect on both vignettes and their own experiences to better consolidate their understanding of the key concepts of the discipline.” — Ken Beatty, Anaheim University, USA David Nunan’s dynamic learner-centered teaching style has informed and inspired countless TESOL educators around the world.
