The site is still under construction and most texts are only in Dutch. The coming year the site will be filled with English texts as well.
Workshop Blaine Ray the 26th of April 2010
Fluency is only learned one way - by listening and understanding. Come learn how to do TPRS (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling.) It is used by thousands of teachers in many countries. TPRS trains you how to teach your students with stories. The stories are engaging because they are about your students. The details change in each story based on the suggestions of your students. Students focus on the story instead of the language and learn how to speak unconsciously.
