We can find
a lot of methods which can be used to improve our learning of foreign languages.
Today I’ll write about SITA method and its effectiveness in English learning.
The definition of this method sounds very interesting – it uses the deep state
of relaxation by timing two hemispheres. Isn’t great to relax and in the same
time learn something? I’m sure you know that this method uses special device –
there are glasses with earphone. Its purpose is to change breathing into light
and sound stimulus. First time the device was made in 1984, based on the
project of Karl Heinz Gelsen from Hamburg. Now, students can use fourth
generation of it, which was designed by Polish scientist – Roman Chmielewski.
Each lesson
is based on four steps:
1.
Familiarizing with the topic.
2.
Remembering.
3.
Exercises.
4.
Repeating.
Each level
of the course contains a book in two languages and CDs. Lessons has topics and
it’s based on dialogue which is read by qualified teachers. Additionally,
dialogues have Polish translation. Text is reading in three pace and after
each, there is a short description of grammar.
Advantages
of SITA:
- it can be
used in learning different languages, for example English, Italian, Spanish,
German and French,
- pace of
learning is connected with student’s needs,
- it teaches
how to relax,
- it helps
to learn language very fast.
Disadvantages:
- lack of
direct contact with other students,
- relaxation
can be excessive ;)
- it’s quite
expensive.
I’ve never
used this method so it’s hard to say if it is effective. Anyway, when I’m
reading comments about it, I can say that’s worth to try it. As I said before –
you can try different methods to find the best for you.
It's something wrong. I'll try to check sita glasses or Thomas Nilsson method is strange it only can be found in Poland. Someone cheating want take money for fake staff
