Keywords:
Total Physical Response,, methods, learningAbstract
Early childhood is a period of rapid emotional, physical, cognitive, and language development. It is the most advantageous period to begin teaching a youngster a foreign language or languages. Although there are numerous ways and approaches for teaching foreign languages, the Total Physical Response (TPR) method is the best ideal for young learners. TPR is a method of teaching language that is based on the coordination of speech and action, or in other words, teaching language through activity. There are no books in the classroom, but there is instruction through songs, games, and stories that follow actions and capture the attention of young active learners. The advantages of employing TPR in foreign language schools for young learners are discussed in this paper.
