What do NLP Language Teachers do that make them different from other Language

Teachers?

They seek to apply the principles in their teaching and this leads to

different responses to many classroom events and processes.

A Central Principle of NLP is:

Rapport which is meeting others in their world, trying to understand their needs, their values and their culture and communicating in ways

that are congruents with those values.

Think on this:

• Neurolinguistic Programming is not a language teaching method, rather, it is designed to convience people that they have the power to control their own and other people’s lives for the better, with practical prescriptions on how to do so.
