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.

Today a very short post, because I have a cold and am spending my time in bed :( This post will be a prelude to further posts on this subject. Motivation is an important aspect of our life. It allows us to do different things and not put them on later. Generally, in the literature, we can find two kinds of motivation - internal and external. It’s much better to use the first one of course. It causes the great feeling of accomplishment – isn’t it amazing feeling when we do something without any constraint? I think that each of us has experienced such a feeling.

I recommend you visiting philharmonic during following weekend. My experience is not so big but very rich! My first visis was couple years ago and couldn’t be better :) I organized a small meeting with my friends and we went to a concert of German quintet – Quinteto Ángel (more info: www.quintetoangel.de). The concert was so so so great, boys were playing remarkably – with energy and passion. Their play is very good and I really regret that they didn’t play in Cracow this year.

          Let’s get to know with a story of philharmonic. Its beginning was in Italy – Bologna and Verona. During XVIII and XIX century a lot of places arose, in Poland it was in 1817 in Cracow – and it’s still here :) At the moment we have 18 in Poland – almost in each big city.

I’ve noticed that self-defense courses are becoming more and more popular recently. I like it and I wanted to check it as well :) Because I like trying new kinds of spending my free time, I went to self-defense lesson. And what? I was really disappointed – it’s obvious that this kind of abilities are very useful, but the atmosphere of lesson was very stodgy. There were four women – two 25+ and two 45+ and instructor, of course. If it is about him, I don’t have any objections – fighting sports are his passion. What’s more, he told us about seminars which he is attending – it means that he’s actively involved into his hobby. What’s interesting, if this kind of person, for example having black belt in karate, will take part in fight, can have a big problem with police or even with court.

Today's post will not contain any recipe, but will be connected with one ingredient of my favourite cakes, cookies, muffins and other delicious desserts. Flour is practically required for most baking things. First I’ll say a few words about its production, then about the kinds and types that can be found in stores.
           The beginning of flour was around 9,000 years BC - woow pretty good ;) then it was made from grains by using flat stones. First mill was built much later – in the 19^th century. Nowadays grains are milled in a mechanic way. The endosperm of flour, which is inside, is separated from the outside one – seed layer. The endosperm is used to produce the flour and the seed layer for brans. There two types of machines which are used to produce the flour – grinding and weeding out. That’s how different quality types of flour are made. Of course, less recycled, better type :)

Today I’ll write about next method of learning English. It’s a bit older than Helen Doron’s from last week. The beginning if it was in 1960. It’s based on conversations. Also, it’s connected with the natural human ability to learn by automatic listening and repeating words – the same as little children are learning how to speak in their mother language. The teacher has to correct any mistakes which students make during talking. He answers many questions and aims at getting answers automatically. At the end, students understand their words without any doubts.

          Many young students can be happy that this method doesn’t use homework, they don’t have to write vocabulary and make notes. This method is focused on speaking, speaking and once again – speaking. Grammar isn’t explained and it’s learned when the opportunity occurs. It’s based on repeating all the time.

On 12^th and 13^th October I had pleasure to take part in amazing event – National Achievers Congress in Warsaw. During two days there was a great meeting for almost 4,000 people in one place. It was also a time for Polish and foreign speakers which were fabulous. What was it about?

        Generally we can divide subject of NAC into two categories – first was about personal development and second – about financial independence. There were real stars and authorities on the scene, Polish and foreign: Robert i Kim Kioysaki, Les Brown, Blair Singer, Andy Harrington, Mateusz Grzesiak, Mariusz Szuba, Marcus de Maria and many more great speakers.
