Total physical response (TPR) is a language teaching method developed by James Asher a professor, emeritus of psychology. At San Jos é State University. It is based on the coordination of language and physical movement. In TPR instructors give,, Commands to students in the target language and students, respond with whole-body actions.
.The method is an example of the comprehension approach to language teaching. The listening and responding (with actions). Serves two purposes: It is a means of quickly recognizing meaning in the language being learned and a, means of passively. Learning the structure of the language itself. Grammar is not taught explicitly but can, be learned from the language input.TPR is a valuable way to learn vocabulary especially, idiomatic, terms e.g, phrasal verbs.
Asher developed TPR as a result. Of his experiences observing young children learning their first language. He noticed that interactions between parents. And children often took the form of speech from the parent followed by a physical response from the child.Asher made three hypotheses based on his observations: first that language, is learned primarily by listening; second,, That language learning must engage the right hemisphere of the brain; and third that learning, language should not involve. Any stress.
Total physical response is often used alongside other methods and techniques. It is popular with beginners. And with, young learnersAlthough it can be used with students of all levels and all age groups.
