Sergey, it may be not my business, but the description seems too short to me. It's quite hard to understand what is the method about. And you don't have to translate the book. Just say it in your words and they will get it, if they are ready to learn something new.Сергей Кевлар писал(а):I’ve been trying to explain the way I use to learn English.
I'd say so:
------------
The shortest way to learn any foreign language is to begin with a so-called matrix. That is, 25-30 dialogs or other texts in this language, read by native and only native speakers. Other sounds in the dialogs are very undesirable. Speech only. If there are pauses between phrases more than one second long, they must be cut. What about the vocabulary of the dialogs? Simple, often used words, short phrases are good, especially if you are a novice. Emotional and expressive speech is desirable, but only positive emotions. If you are listening about something negative, even in the foreign language, it will influence your mind negatively, too.
A dialog should be 30-50 seconds long. It's an optimum size. Speed must be normal, as people speak in real life.
First, you listen to the first dialog, again and again, three hours a day. It may take two or three weeks. Why so much? Because our brain tries to detect the sounds of the foreign language using the basis of the sounds existing in our language. So, when you just begin, you don't really hear what you hear. And it takes time to detect everything correctly.
When you are sure you have heard everything, start to listen and simultaneously read the text with your eyes only. It will also take few days. Listen and read, until you can read each phrase as fast as you hear it.
After this, begin speaking, trying to exactly copy the pronunciation of the speakers. You can return to listening if needed. Do it until you can read the whole dialog with ease.
Having finished with the first dialog, come to the second, and so on.
Then loop all the dialogs and listen them, and listen, and listen. Then speak, and speak, and speak - from the first to the last. Three hours a day, about two months. Do it until this speaking will be as usual to you as, say, your cup of tea in the morning.
Working with all the matrix takes from half a year to year. It will give you basic vocabulary, as well as listening, reading and speaking skills. Now you are ready to improve your skills and broaden vocabulary through reading books and watching films.
