    One of the most influential professors in the world when it comes to languages. I totally changed my prospective towards language learning due to Dr Stephen Krashen long time ago 😊 Great video. Thanks for sharing👏🏻

    Thank you so much for this! I teach English/reading comprehension to Deaf adults. There is no way they can listen to and acquire English. However, after instruction using American Sign Language as a bridge to English print, they improve their reading comprehension bit by bit. With support, their reading takes off!

    I had the same result with learning Italian. I tell you, the first 6 months was the best. Back then it was audio cassettes, CD's and grammar books with dialogues. Then I moved on to reading and using audio when Mp3 came out. Yes reading interesting articles has a lot of impact

    I agree, but having 6 years of living abroad in an English-speaking country and using the second language (which is English for me) for more than 50% of everything that I did was enough to understand a lot, but I wasn't able to differentiate between when to use present perfect or past perfect ("have" and "had" sound similar, and the structure is similar). Didn't get it until I started studying grammar specifically.

      This is where body language, gestures, drawings, and sound imitations come into play. We do communicate on multiple levels, not only by spoken language.

      @@nastiakarpova whit this why is nobody trying to make animations for languge lerning. Whit animation you can exagerate the body langugage so is easyer to understand. but thanks for replay and help.

      I kinda agree with you. Im currently learning french and korean, and even though i use comprensible imput and compelling methods, the both of them required a different approach one from another.

    • @gabrielbarbosa4091
      @gabrielbarbosa4091 11 месяцев назад

      For korean, the better example, i started not knowing a single word, or rather nor a single letter. So even with compressible videos i couldnt reach the level to undestand anything ( even with drawings, gesturing…).

    • @gabrielbarbosa4091
      @gabrielbarbosa4091 11 месяцев назад +1

      Then the best thing i could thought was to learn some basic words, the pronunciation etc ( through duoling and some free apps to be honest). After that, with some hours dedicated in this matter, i restarted to watch the comprehensible videos ( the same i already watched) and for vig surprise, i could follow the class - not undestanding all the words, but the context along with some words that i knew.

    But if in the book there's some words that I don't know. I just look up the meaning without take notes and without do flash cards?

      only jot down the key words you really can't grasp from context ...if the appear OFTEN...some suggest 5 times...Main thing is not to interrupt the flow of your reading...

    Stephen Krashen has often been accused of not providing any hard evidence, and this is a prime example - it's all anecdotes. How can you claim your Spanish has improved because someone who most certainly looks up to you congratulates you on your progress? Beyond me.

      If you paid attention to what he said and mentally annotated you'd know that his argument was not learning the language through praise but learning it because he was actually interested in the conversation. He gossiped (which he clearly states he fully enjoys) with a cool person who spoke Spanish for about a year. "If you don't have something good to say about someone, come sit next to me... it's really fun" -Krashen. He desired so much to gossip and engage in the latest town tea that he picked up a book to help him learn to socialize a little more on his weekly grocery runs. The evidence was him and you not comprehending that is Beyond me.

    Whenever I tell someone who has learned another language that I'm using Duolingo, they invariably tell me that I just have to get out and talk to people using the language I'm learning but that doesn't seem to work for me. I don't pick up new words well orally, I need to see them written down. Clearly, different strategies work for different people.
    I'd never heard of graded readers. I'll be checking those out, thanks :)

      Based on what I have learned about Comprehensible Input, I think Duolingo isn't that bad after all. I provides i+1 level of input. Every timejust a little higher level, some new vocab or grammar. I used to think Duolingo is useless for language learning. But now my academic studies changed my mind. We can acquire a language with the help of Duolingo.

      I've been using Duolingo for nearly two years now and I honestly love it. The repetition is perfect for memorization, I think. And the clear pronunciation is great for helping users learn to reproduce the sounds accurately.
