If you are above 16 years, there are only TWO WAYS in which
you can develop English proficiency.
1. Through a theme, that you are passionate about. Or,
In Cognitive Educational Psychology, this principle is called
Content-based Instruction (or, Theme-based Learning).
Oral language is the foundation of all language development and
therefore the foundation of all learning. It is the basis for the other
language strands like Listening, Reading & Writing.”
2. Through a topic, that is the core of your profession or
work, and you are responsible for learning it thoroughly and
producing result in a timely manner.
Mugging-up of grammar rules, and learning vocabulary lists
by-heart is not going to build English proficiency. Grammar
rules and vocabulary should become your second nature.

you speak, think and act. Some people crumble under pressure.
Others thrive under pressure.

opportunities for the learners to try themselves on their
abilities to listen to and respond meaningfully on the spot.

What is Content-Based Instruction or
Theme-based Learning?
Content-based Instruction is a powerful innovation in language
teaching across a wide range of instructional contexts. (Brinton,
Snow, and Wesche .1989). In its best form, the language
lessons are blended with stimulating content.
The integration of language and content teaching is perceived
by the European Commission as “an excellent way of making
progress in a It first appeared on the foreign language”, this
institution having contributed to developing the network
Euroclic, a forum for projects and proposals in the area of
language and content integrated learning.
Keeping students motivated and interested are two important
factors underlying content-based instruction. Motivation and
interest are crucial in supporting student success with
challenging, informative activities that support success and
which help the student learn complex skills (Grabe & Stoller,
1997).
When students are motivated and interested in the material they
are learning, they make greater connections between topics,
elaborations with learning material and can recall information
better (Alexander, Kulikowich, & Jetton, 1994: Krapp, Hidi, &
Renninger, 1992).
The Evolution and Scope
It first appeared on the general language teaching scene in the
mid- to late 1980s, and has gained increasing popularity and
wider applicability in the last ten years. This prominence can be
easily perceived in the wide range of contexts, educational
stages and content areas involved.
With CBI, student achieves more. This in turn leads to a
perception of success, of gaining positive attributes which will
continue a circular learning pattern of success and interest.
“When learners are motivated and interested in
the material they are learning, they make greater
connections between topics, elaborations with
learning material and can recall information
better. That is the best way to learn a second
language.”

World’s First and Only Complete English Enhancement Program based on Content-based Instruction (CBI)
Major Benefits of Content-based
Instruction
Strong empirical support for CBI can be found in second
language acquisition (SLA) research, in training studies and in
cognitive psychology, as well as in the outcomes documented
by successful programs in a variety of contexts and levels of
instruction (Adamson 1993; Dupuy 2000).
Grabe and Stoller (1997) perceive seven benefits of CBI as
cited below:
1. Learners are exposed to a considerable amount of language
while learning content. (. . .) In content-based programs,
learners explore interesting content and are engaged in
appropriate language-dependent activities (. . .). The resultant
language learning activities,therefore, are not artificial or
meaningless exercises.
2. CBI supports contextualized learning; learners are taught
useful language that is embedded within relevant discourse
contexts rather than as isolated language fragments. (. . .).
Thus, CBI allows for explicit language instruction, integrated
with content instruction, in a relevant and purposeful context.
3. (. . .) The use of coherently developed content sources allows
learners to call on their own prior knowledge to learn additional
language and content material.
4. (. . .) In content-based classroom, learners are exposed to
complex information and are involved in demanding activities
which can lead to intrinsic motivation.
5. CBI (. . .) lends itself well to strategy instruction and
practice, as theme units naturally require and recycle important
strategies across varying content and learning tasks.
6. CBI allows greater flexibility and adaptability to be built into
the curriculum and activity Sequences. (Grabe and Stoller
1997, 19-20)
“Content-based Instruction effectively increases
learners' English language proficiency and teaches
them the skills necessary for success in various
professions.
With CBI, learners gradually acquire greater
control of the English language, enabling them to
participate more fully in an increasingly complex
academic and social environment.”
“Because CBI focuses on the use of
language to convey thoughts and ideas,
it offers many meaningful contexts
within which learners can develop
grammatical competence.”
- Dr. Peter Master, Professor Emeritus,
Department of Linguistics, San Jose
State University

“Out of the four language skills,
‘Speaking’ is considered as the most
essential skill to be mastered.
Oral language is a powerful learning
tool, which Shapes, Modifies,
Extends and Organizes thought.
Oral language is the foundation of all
language development and therefore
the foundation of all learning. It is
the basis for the other language
strands like Listening, Reading &
Writing.”
- Martin Bygate (1987, Oxford)
“People do not learn the pieces of
the language and then put them
together to make conversations.
Instead, infants acquiring their first
language, and people acquiring
second language learn the
components of the language
through meaningful interaction
with other people”.
- (Ellis,1990; Gass,1997; And
Larsen-Freeman & Long, 1991)
Speaking is the
basis for
all learning!
Speaking can be
learned only
through
actual speaking!
“The ability to speak on the spot is the
most crucial skill of the 21st century,
and performing under pressure is a
moment of truth. In a professional
setting, everybody is talented.
However, ability to perform under
pressure is the real talent.
Whenever there is something at stake,
you reveal yourself by how you
speak, think and act. Some people
crumble under pressure. Others
thrive under pressure. And, this skill
can be easily mastered.”
- Hybel (2001)
Speak Under
Pressure,
On the Spot!
Expert’s Advice-1: Expert’s Advice-2: Expert’s Advice-5:
“Students are fed up with
meaningless communication
lessons in classrooms.
For instance, "A traditional
classroom exchange in which one
student asks “Where's the
library”? and another student
answers “It's on Green Street,
opposite the bank”, when they
can both see the answer, is not
much like real communication".
- (Harmer, 2001, p. 85)
“The anxiety, nervous
mannerisms, and unconscious
glaze that come over many
people when they are asked to
speak are merely symptoms of a
deeper and more significant
state of mind. The boil can be
treated physically, but something
else is happening physiologically.
The boil is the effect, not the
cause, which runs deeper than the
external symptoms. Band-aid is
not the solution.”
- Kenneth Wydro
Content Must

No Band-Aid
Solution for
Speaking!
Expert’s Advice-6:Expert’s Advice-4:
“Reduce teaching speaking time in
class while increasing student
speaking time. Step back and
observe students.
Do not correct students’
pronunciation mistakes very often
while they are speaking. (Correction
should not distract student from
his/her speech).
Provide timely, factual, and
convincing feedbacks that is
actionable.”

Didactic Learning Vs.
Experiential Learning
Section 2: Spoken English Simulator (Contd…)
World’s First and Only Spoken English Simulator with Body-language recording feature.
Page: 22
Didactic learning is also known as rote-
learning. Students memorize facts, often
out of context.
Didactic learning has proven ineffective in
creating long-term memory retention.
The opposite of Didactic learning is
Experiential Learning.
Experiential Learning ties the learning of
a fact into a broader experience. Unlike
Didactic Learning, Experiential Learning
is proven highly effective at creating long-
term memory retention.
Spoken English Simulator is a classical
example of the application of
Experiential Learning.
Whether in a meeting, one to one, attending an interview, attending
a test like IELTS/PTE/TOEF, addressing a colleague, or making a
presentation, Spoken English Simulator will help you structure your
ideas and gather thoughts quickly, with clarity and brevity.
Build the ability to target on issues, organise your ideas, speed up
presentation and response time. Discover how to get your point across
quickly and clearly, handle on-the-spot questions and persuade your
audience.
Spoken English Simulator is a powerful tool that dramatically
improves the communication of all your thoughts and ideas through:
Speaking, Presenting, Writing, Persuading, Negotiating, etc.

Smart English through Love & Romance. Smart English through Love & Romance World’s First and Only Complete English Enhancement Program based on Content-based Instruction (CBI) What is Content-Based Instruction or Theme-based Learning? Content-based Instruction is a powerful innovation in language teaching across a wide range of instructional contexts. (Brinton, Snow, and Wesche .1989). In its best form, the language lessons are blended with stimulating content. The integration of language and content teaching is perceived by the European Commission as “an excellent way of making progress in a It first appeared on the foreign language”, this institution having contributed to developing the network Euroclic, a forum for projects and proposals in the area of language and content integrated learning. Keeping students motivated and interested are two important factors underlying content-based instruction. Motivation and interest are crucial in supporting student success with challenging, informative activities that support success and which help the student learn complex skills (Grabe & Stoller, 1997). When students are motivated and interested in the material they are learning, they make greater connections between topics, elaborations with learning material and can recall information better (Alexander, Kulikowich, & Jetton, 1994: Krapp, Hidi, & Renninger, 1992). The Evolution and Scope It first appeared on the general language teaching scene in the mid- to late 1980s, and has gained increasing popularity and wider applicability in the last ten years. This prominence can be easily perceived in the wide range of contexts, educational stages and content areas involved. With CBI, student achieves more. This in turn leads to a perception of success, of gaining positive attributes which will continue a circular learning pattern of success and interest. “When learners are motivated and interested in the material they are learning, they make greater connections between topics, elaborations with learning material and can recall information better. That is the best way to learn a second language.” - Dr. Patricia Alexander, University of Maryland Smart Communication through Management Ideas. Smart English through Cricket. Smart English through Career Success Ideas.
  • 5. Smart English through Love & Romance World’s First and Only Complete English Enhancement Program based on Content-based Instruction (CBI) Major Benefits of Content-based Instruction Strong empirical support for CBI can be found in second language acquisition (SLA) research, in training studies and in cognitive psychology, as well as in the outcomes documented by successful programs in a variety of contexts and levels of instruction (Adamson 1993; Dupuy 2000). Grabe and Stoller (1997) perceive seven benefits of CBI as cited below: 1. Learners are exposed to a considerable amount of language while learning content. (. . .) In content-based programs, learners explore interesting content and are engaged in appropriate language-dependent activities (. . .). The resultant language learning activities,therefore, are not artificial or meaningless exercises. 2. CBI supports contextualized learning; learners are taught useful language that is embedded within relevant discourse contexts rather than as isolated language fragments. (. . .). Thus, CBI allows for explicit language instruction, integrated with content instruction, in a relevant and purposeful context. 3. (. . .) The use of coherently developed content sources allows learners to call on their own prior knowledge to learn additional language and content material. 4. (. . .) In content-based classroom, learners are exposed to complex information and are involved in demanding activities which can lead to intrinsic motivation. 5. CBI (. . .) lends itself well to strategy instruction and practice, as theme units naturally require and recycle important strategies across varying content and learning tasks. 6. CBI allows greater flexibility and adaptability to be built into the curriculum and activity Sequences. (Grabe and Stoller 1997, 19-20) “Content-based Instruction effectively increases learners' English language proficiency and teaches them the skills necessary for success in various professions. With CBI, learners gradually acquire greater control of the English language, enabling them to participate more fully in an increasingly complex academic and social environment.” “Because CBI focuses on the use of language to convey thoughts and ideas, it offers many meaningful contexts within which learners can develop grammatical competence.” - Dr. Peter Master, Professor Emeritus, Department of Linguistics, San Jose State University

  • 21. “Out of the four language skills, ‘Speaking’ is considered as the most essential skill to be mastered. Oral language is a powerful learning tool, which Shapes, Modifies, Extends and Organizes thought. Oral language is the foundation of all language development and therefore the foundation of all learning. It is the basis for the other language strands like Listening, Reading & Writing.” - Martin Bygate (1987, Oxford) “People do not learn the pieces of the language and then put them together to make conversations. Instead, infants acquiring their first language, and people acquiring second language learn the components of the language through meaningful interaction with other people”. - (Ellis,1990; Gass,1997; And Larsen-Freeman & Long, 1991) Speaking is the basis for all learning! Speaking can be learned only through actual speaking! “The ability to speak on the spot is the most crucial skill of the 21st century, and performing under pressure is a moment of truth. In a professional setting, everybody is talented. However, ability to perform under pressure is the real talent. Whenever there is something at stake, you reveal yourself by how you speak, think and act. Some people crumble under pressure. Others thrive under pressure. And, this skill can be easily mastered.” - Hybel (2001) Speak Under Pressure, On the Spot! Expert’s Advice-1: Expert’s Advice-2: Expert’s Advice-5: “Students are fed up with meaningless communication lessons in classrooms. For instance, "A traditional classroom exchange in which one student asks “Where's the library”? and another student answers “It's on Green Street, opposite the bank”, when they can both see the answer, is not much like real communication". - (Harmer, 2001, p. 85) “The anxiety, nervous mannerisms, and unconscious glaze that come over many people when they are asked to speak are merely symptoms of a deeper and more significant state of mind. The boil can be treated physically, but something else is happening physiologically. The boil is the effect, not the cause, which runs deeper than the external symptoms. Band-aid is not the solution.” - Kenneth Wydro Content Must Motivate & Inspire No Band-Aid Solution for Speaking! Expert’s Advice-6:Expert’s Advice-4: “Reduce teaching speaking time in class while increasing student speaking time. Step back and observe students. Do not correct students’ pronunciation mistakes very often while they are speaking. (Correction should not distract student from his/her speech). Provide timely, factual, and convincing feedbacks that is actionable.” - Hayriye Kayi (2006) We Need Actionable Feedbacks! Expert’s Advice-3: SpeakEnglish Gym® SpeakEnglishGym.com Section 2. Spoken English Simulator World’s First and Only Simulator for Providing the Actual Experience of Responding to Various Questions On-the-Spot. “Knowing a language rule doesn’t mean one will be able to use it in communicative interactions.” - Brown (2000) Spoken English Simulator Page: 21

Experiential Learning Section 2: Spoken English Simulator (Contd…) World’s First and Only Spoken English Simulator with Body-language recording feature. Page: 22 Didactic learning is also known as rote- learning. Students memorize facts, often out of context. Didactic learning has proven ineffective in creating long-term memory retention.
