- SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/EngCIsub SUPPORT: bit.ly/CEpatreon DONATE: bit.ly/BLLpaypal Pick up English words and grammar through comprehensible input by listening to commands and watching and performing actions. Learn to understand verbs, adverbs, and prepositions related to physical movements using one hand and a surface like a table or desk.
Each command is spoken two times. The first time without any action and the second time with the related action. Learners can watch, listen and imitate the actions, then watch again and try doing the correct actions as they gain understanding of the spoken language.
This video teaches English to beginners entirely in English, using a natural approach of listening to comprehensible input. I use visuals, pointing, gestures, and repetition as I talk to make my speaking easy to understand for ESL beginners, so they can acquire English without study or translation.

My blog about SLA/L2A (second language acquisition): beyondlanguage...
I’m a polyglot interest in learning methods about learning acquisition. I was surfing on internet and ended up here. Interesting content! That’s what we call kinesthetic method. Thanks for sharing. Professor X here. Stay safe
You're welcome @Professor X ! Thanks for your interest. For this video I adapted the Total Physical Response method. It is a kinesthetic approach to language learning as it involves movements of the limbs and body. It is different from other kinesthetic methods in some ways. For example the learner just has to watch, listen and follow the commands. They aren't expected to speak or repeat them.
English Comprehensible Input for ESL Beginners ah yeah I got it. Very interesting! Congratulations! Creative and effective. 🙏🏻
TPRS，got story,a type of teaching language method.
I learned about TPR during my grad studies, but didn't think much about it. Later while learning Malay in Malaysia I tried it out after my teacher was boring me trying to teach grammar. The experience was incredibly positive as my teacher was very receptive and quite inventive. Before long he had a triving little business teaching members of our English staff. Why isn't TPR bigger? I'm surprised countries haven't adopted it since so much could be done by video. No problem with interest. Just take the class out to the soccer field and try a few headers, corners and free kicks.
Yes, TPR can (and indeed should) be used with interesting and meaningful activities too. I'm just starting off with various actions to give people something. At the very beginning at least, many learners enjoy the novelty factor of exposure to a new language in a way that's comprehensible, even if the actions aren't very purposeful.
Very nice ! Thanks !
You're welcome! Glad you like it!
Please! Ask questions Always in the videos, the comprehension is much better!
Thank´s a lot! we learn more and "input" the information in our minds!
This video uses the Total Physical Response (TPR) method. It is based around commands. That's why I didn't use questions in it. It's for learners (especially beginners) to pick up words by watching and following the commands. That way, they should be able to learn the new words, even if they don't understand them right away. I mainly use questions in my videos with stories such as: ruclips.net/video/kFW3IPfEMiM/видео.html
What a clever idea! It's amazing
Thank you! 😊 Glad you think so!
Thanks
Спасибо 👍
От бориса пришла а?
That's cool, thanks!
he is a good teacher. I love his video. thanks teacher :)
It's cool 👍 Many thanks 👍
I love this video
Really good English learning content, liked it!
Hello, i've been watching your videos for about many times now, and I appreciate this kind of language learning compare with the traditional way. May I request if you would want to, to make video about email writing or correspondence in a comprehensible input way so that i could eliminate the habit of memorizing the phrases to be used instead of acquiring them and apply them naturally. Thank you very much for your time.
Thanks for the idea John! I'll add it to my lists of ideas and topics for future videos. In the meantime, one thing I would recommend that might help is to read emails and correspondence by English speakers of the kind you want to write and observe the kinds of expressions they use. By the way, your comment reads very well. There are a few minor errors, but it's completely understandable and it sounds polite and appropriate for an email that you might send to someone.
@@ComprehensibleEnglish Thank you very much for your valuable inputs Sir. Please keep posting videos like this, it inspires me to be more eloquent english speaker.
Thanks for this video!

Gooooood!
I am looking for a course with kinesthetic Method or Input Comprehensible Method. Where can I find a course with an effective methodology to buy?
Hi Giordano, what are your goals with English, or what would you like to improve?
@@ComprehensibleEnglish I need to speak better, I can read and understand, but I cannot speak, perhaps out of I feel shame or nervous, but I need to practice speaking, so I look for a method that encourages me to speak.
I am a U.S. born, native English speaker. I teach conversational English classes, but they are not based on the kinesthetic method. However, they *are* structured (it is not simply free talk; they are based around themes, but they encourage speaking). I host my classes entirely via Zoom and charge flexible, accessible rates. If you're interested, you can reach out to me at cminacaecuador@gmail.com.
I wish you the very best on your journey to fluency.
Hi Giordano, from reading your comments, it sounds like your English is quite good already! As for speaking, I would recommend that you continue listening a lot to English that you find understandable and interesting, and also find opportunities to begin to speak more and more. One way you might practice speaking on your own or become more confident with speaking is to answer the questions that I ask in other videos. If you listen to my stories with many questions and answers repeatedly, you might start to think of the answers in English before I say them. Here you could pause the video and say these answers yourself, out loud. At first, you might only give simple answers like "yes" or "no" or just one or two words, but later you will be able to give longer answers, answering in full sentences. These older videos have some audio stories I recorded with many questions and answers: ruclips.net/p/PLqE81DRO-TpEVx8dhZb-Dj-A6sZSBfaa3 You might be able to find more of these kinds of stories by searching for "mini stories" or "English mini stories".
Hello, may I ask: why at 0:48 do you say "turn your hand back over"? I would've understood just "turn your hand back" because we return it to the initial position, but I struggle to understand what meaning does "over" convey.
@user-si9jy3zs1j Just saying "turn your hand back" could sound ambiguous (back to where or what exactly?), so "over" makes it clear that the command means to turn your hand over, back to its initial position.
❤👋
Great
And my hand hurts 😂😂🤚
Are you OK?
@@ComprehensibleEnglish
Yes, i am just kidding 😁
OK good! I try to make these videos a safe way to learn English 😁
Im level A2 in english, i would like to speak spoken english, could you help me?
What do you need help with? I think your English writing is quite good.
@@ComprehensibleEnglish can i learn to speak english watching series with subtitles and withoutsubtitles?, my native language is spanish,and i want to speak spoken english
😀
Sometimes I think that it is just necessary to completely forget my native language and start looking at this world using English as a medium. Just pretend and behave as if you're a child who has no experience and isn't overwhelmed with all information of the past. Mostly our native languages prevent us from effortless and natural foreign language acquisition, free from deliberate grammar studying and memorizing of vocabulary...
One of my goals with these videos is to help people approach English in that kind of way.
@@ComprehensibleEnglish Yes. I see... Indeed the method seems to be exceedingly effective. However I am concerned with one detail. Usually I don't feel attachment to English. No matter how I speak (fluently or slowly), write, read, listen to English, the language is not felt like being my own one. And rarely there can appear some kind of moments of so called enlightenment when English is perceived as clearly as my native language. As if I begin to "feel" this language like native speakers do. These short moments last for several seconds but they bring about bliss and great profound pleasure. You begin to smile spontaneously, uncontrollably. Only during these moments am I able to thoroughly absorb the language and 'live' it, so to speak. But then a fear appears.It pushes you back into your former state. The fear obstructs people I think. This very fear is like a barrier. Probably our brains refuse to accept something so unusual. It is a matter of getting out of the zone of comfort our brains have created.
@@KarlAnthonySteel I think it takes a great deal of time with English for it to start to feel like one's native language. I don't think it is worth worrying very much about whether or not or how much English feels that way to you. I think it's better to focus on using English in ways that are highly useful and meaningful for you, especially listening to English that's very interesting for you.
It sounds like your level is quite advanced, so I would recommend that you focus on English content that is interesting for you such as videos made for native or fluent English speakers about topics that you want to learn more about.
My content like this TPR video is meant for total English beginners. This kind of English content is not that interesting or meaningful in itself, but for total beginners, it can feel exciting to begin to understand and follow commands in a new language.
I think you should take the fact that you sometimes feel like you perceive English as clearly as your native language as a encouraging sign. Instead of worrying about how long these moments last, focus on getting input in English that's interesting and meaningful to you.
@@ComprehensibleEnglish Thanks for advice , Kristian.
