From the Author
Language learning can be fun and it doesn't have to be difficult. So often, we get bogged down in detail. Yet it doesn't have to be that way. I have discovered the methods I describe in this book after many years of teaching both adults and children, of seeing others learn my language and of observing my own language learning process. Recently I have formed my own language school, where I use many of the techniques outlined in this guide. Follow my suggestions and you can work out exactly what you want to learn and how. You can develop effective language learning habits. Most importantly you can learn to have fun. But perhaps best of all, you can learn how to form and enjoy friendships with someone from another culture.
From the Back Cover
Learning a language doesn't have to be difficult - in fact it can be easy and fun. And one thing's for sure, you'll get so much more out of being abroad when you know something of the language, and get to know the people who speak it. This book tells you the quickest, most effective and most enjoyable ways of learning the language you need to know.
About the Author
Gill James has published several collections of teaching materials, which emphasise the students' control of their own language learning. She has worked for 25 years teaching modern languages both in schools and as a private tutor to adults of all ages. It was in the course of offering private tuition that she discovered the way, outlined in this book, of making the learning of languages more effective. This has also led to the formation of Gill's language school, Bridge House Languages, which works on these principles.
