3. What is TPR ?
Method of learning a language that uses
verbal commands for students to demonstrate
their understanding verbal commands

4. PRINCIPLES
Students are not forced to speak
Teacher provokes students to speak spontaneously
Time Spent on listening comprehension
Developing spoken language skills
The student relax and feel comfortable

5. GOAL
TPR begins with a
focus on large
concepts.
In the beginning,
there is a wide
tolerance for students’
speech errors.
The concepts are
gradually fine tuned to
focus on small details.
As TPR progresses, the
tolerance for speech errors
narrows.
This is similar to a
parent’s shrinking
tolerance for his child’s
errors in speech, as the
child grows.
