Description
Book SynopsisThe goal of language educators is to help their students learn language in the manner that is most efficient, effective, and enjoyable for them as individuals. Key to this book is the idea of cocreation – where the educator and student work together to come up with materials and methods that are suited to those means. Using techniques that follow neuroscientific research, using our knowledge of the science of learning, neuropsychology, and emotional intelligence is vital. Bringing back the joy of learning is one of the key aims of this book. Having a second language opens up the world to students, expanding their horizons and giving them a better understanding of others’ cultures. Learning a language, then, should be just as exciting and joyful. This book is full of brain friendly exercises and resources designed to help you connect with students and guide them along the path to language mastery, bringing you one step closer to delivering any grammatical area through neurolanguage coaching conversations using the PACT PQC coaching model. Language Coaching in Action will equip you with powerful coaching questions to imprint the rules and theory of language on students, creating those ‘aha’ moments when it all clicks together, bringing the big picture of grammar to learners.
