In this video from YouTube, please, take the time to reflect on some compelling results with modern Language Learning techniques. As many of you probably know, in the past, grammar occupied a major role in Foreign Languages teaching, at the High School level, for example. I still see it taught that way in some schools. However, following this method, graduating students can hardly, if at all, sustain a basic conversation in the foreign language they have spent so much time studying through a hefty dose of grammar, translating and vocabulary lists memorizing. This professor shows here his results after putting in practice a different approach in a relatively limited time. I still think that grammar is important to learn but should not take the central spot in the teaching of a new tongue.
