Mandarin Through Comprehensible Input: Dr. Terry Waltz Online Demo (Hour 1)
This is the first hour of an online course for new adult learners of Mandarin Chinese. It is taught using Comprehensible Input. This session serves as a demo about possibilities for setting up visuals, cueing meaning after it has been established, how to 'circle' without being repetitive or boring, how to present highly targeted language as input, and how the basics of this type of language teaching might work in an online situation.

Learning to ask "circling questions" (repetitive but unpredictable questions) in the foreign language classroom using the CircleUp! card-based training system. The technique of circling new language originated in TPRS, but makes an easy and effective addition to any foreign language teaching situation. Please note that this is only the technique of deriving and asking the basic circling questio...

    • @terrywaltz9167
      @terrywaltz9167 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think you need to read about what Comprehensible Input is. The first step in comprehensible input is to establish meaning -- in this case, we use the shared fluent language, which is the most accurate and rapid way of doing so.

    • @tim_despair
      @tim_despair 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      you're wrong, you should teach using a language using pictures and context, but the established understanding was through translations for all words, that's not comprehensible input, search for "comprehensible input English" you'll see lots of people never using translations like you did. It's all about context.@@terrywaltz9167

    Where I can learn TPRS ("Teaching proficiency through reading and storytelling"") technique as a teacher of Spanish? I am a native Spanish speaker. I want to be a language teacher for not native Spanish speakers in Ecuador, like people from china that are living here, there is a lot of Chinese migrants in Ecuador that make middle income and revenue, they normally have restaurant and commerce business but they can't speak Spanish. I want to study for a master's degree in language teaching methods but using language acquisition theory as a model. I am not a teacher I am another type of professional. I know that this method has scientific papers that explain, study, and compare this method. I want a master's degree in the topic. Thank you for reading this and thank you for the video I found it very informative and entertaining.

I usually run a seven-week "Teaching with Comprehensible Input: The Essential Knowledge Series" every two months, so the next one will start mid- to late March. It will be posted on squidforbrains.com when it's available.
