SUGGESTOPEADIA

• Suggestopeadia is a teaching method developed by the Bulgarian psychotherapist

Georgi Lozanov. • The method has been used in different fields

of studies but mostly in the field of foreign language learning.

• Lozanov says that by using this method one can teach languages approximately three to five times as quickly as conventional methods.

• However, it is not limited to the learning of languages, but language learning was found to be a process in which one can easily measure how much and how fast something is learned.

• Some of the key elements of Suggestopeadia include a rich sensory learning environment (pictures, colour, music, etc.),

• A positive expectation of success and the use of a varied range of methods: dramatised texts, active participation in songs and games, etc.

Suggestopedia adopts a carefully structured approach, using four main stages as follows:

1. Presentation

A preparatory stage in which students are helped to relax and move into a positive frame of mind, with the feeling that the learning is going to be easy and fun.

2. First Concert - "Active Concert"

This involves the active presentation of the material to be learnt. For example, in a foreign language course there might be the dramatic reading of a piece of text, accompanied by classical music.

3. Second Concert - "Passive Review"

The students are now invited to relax and listen to some Baroque music, with the text being read very quietly in the background.

The music is specially selected to bring the students into the optimum mental state for the effortless acquisition of the material.

4. Practice

The use of a range of games, puzzles, etc. to review and consolidate the learning.
