In his article “Memory and Language Acquisition: A Scientific Approach to Language Instruction©” Maurice Hazan provides an in-depth analysis that demonstrates exactly why and how the QTalk® method of language instruction works. This scientific description will be of special interest to those who are involved with the emerging field of Mind, Brain and Education.

Understanding the science behind the method is not required for successful teaching, just as it is not necessary to know how a motorized vehicle engines work, in order to drive a car, truck or schoolbus.

 

Questions answered in this article include:

  • How does this teaching method actually work?
  • What is going on inside different parts of the student's brain at the level of neural activity?
  • What are the implications for those who teach language in classrooms of all kinds, to students of all ages and capabilities?
  • Is language acquisition an innate skill, and if so, do all students have it?
  • Can this language-learning capacity be strengthened with certain kinds of instructional techniques?
