BOOK EXCERPT:
Welcome to Neuropedia | The Deblocking Method This method accelerates learning 3 to 5 times more than any conventional method. It has several positive by-products, such as psychotherapeutic and psycho-hygienic effects in the "Suggestopedic environment" created in the classroom. During my years of teaching English as a Foreign Language, I could never accept the fact that my students needed so many years to start speaking a new language with confidence. Some others, even with years of study and dedication, could not develop, despite my efforts to create better classes and activities. Others had to constantly review the verb "to be". The results? The students were afraid of speaking and learning. Many people may ask: "But how can it be possible to learn effectively in a short time? What's the secret?" Others say: "That's impossible! It is just propaganda!" But actually, we are beings with an incredible power to learn, but the "Social Suggestive Norms" so present in our pedagogical system for centuries dictate how much we can learn and how long we need to. But I ask you: "How did we learn our mother language? How could our brain collect, organize, understand, and reproduce words and sentences when we were children?" No one went to school to learn to speak. Our parents or who may have raised us never taught us grammar in order to make us speak. We can realize that we are missing something in our system of foreign language teaching. It does not use the resources available in our brain/mind. Our way of teaching in the present is not structured to follow the way the brain receives stores and processes information. So, why not change the whole system? The answer is quite simple. Who wants to train teachers? Change textbooks and methods? How long would it take? But the fact is that more scientists are discovering the mysteries of mind and memory. We are taking advantage of these discoveries made centuries and decades ago. Researchers have noticed that the current pedagogic system is not the best approach to learn. That's why so many so-called accelerated learning systems or brain-friendly approaches have appeared. The main problem is that most of them have never been really tested. They have not had a follow-up for decades to check if they would be beneficial to the students. Neuropedia is a method with a scientific background.
