I
haven’t even heard about it – that was what I thought ;) That’s why I decided
to investigate it very carefully. The Total Immersion is about being in touch
with the language all the time. Talking, reading newspapers, watching TV, even
thinking. It’s well known by people who are going abroad and don’t have any
contact with their mother tongue. They don’t have any choice and have to use
for example English in daily life – in the shop, on the street, at school and
work.
This method is based on big intensity. Honestly, it
needs a lot of time because lessons last from 1 to 6 weeks, from Monday till
Friday, from 8am till 5pm! Woow! It’s like a job but in a different area. During
each day there are 12 lessons, which topic and level is connected with the
students. Who is learning such method? I think that especially people who want
to learn language in a short time or businessmen. The students have contact
with language all the time, even during lunch break and drinks, which are
provided by school. In Poland this method is authorized by Berlitz school. They
assure that results after one week are comparable with these after months.
The course is quite expensive and it can be negative –
even 8000 for a week! I hope that’s worth of it :) The price includes drinks and lunches which are
organized in the nearest restaurants. The students can use specially prepared
classrooms as well. I think that the course needs a lot of effort, sometimes
students can doubt or even have crisis. However, I think that in the end there
are unforgettable memories and great satisfaction from the results which are
achieved. Who wouldn’t learn foreign language in a week? ;) I’m pro!
