Teaching Style

I believe in learning to communicate in English through hearing, speaking, repetition, seeing, and reading. No memorization of word lists or anything else. As you advance you will add to your vocabulary through the use of images and from context when reading. The only mistake you can make is not trying to speak! No grammar rules. You'll learn grammar naturally, like a child, by listening, repeating and reading suitable material.
