2. DEFINITION OF TPR
Total physical response (TPR) is a
language-teaching method developed by James
Asher, a professor emeritus of psychology at
San José State University. It is based on the
coordination of language and physical
movement. In TPR, instructors give commands
to students in the target language, and students
respond with whole-body actions and vice-
versa.
3. • Learners in Total
Physical Response have
the primary roles of
listener and performer.

4. Advantages
1. It is fun and easy
2. It does not require a great
deal of preparation on the part
of the teacher.
3. It is a good tool for learning
vocabulary.
4. Class size does not need to be a
problem.
5. There is no age barrier.
6. Simulation Methods (Simulation
Methods)
learning Procces using simulation methods
tend the object instead of the actual object or
activity, but the activity that pretend to teach.
The method is usually carried out by high-
grade student at this school can be used in a
learning group. In this method students are
invited to play some of the behaviors that
correspond to the learning objectives.
7. Play a role (role playing). In the process of
learning the game put the pattern in the form
of dramatization. This simulation focuses for
students to remember.
The game simulation (simulation games). Play
a role in student learning in accordance with
the role given to him.
THE TYPES OF
SIMULATION
METHODS:
9. THE ADVANTAGES OF
SIMULATION METHODS:
• Students can interact and communicate within
groups.
• Students are directly involved in the learning
activities of students is high enough so that,
• Familiarize students understand social problems.
• Positive personal relationships between students in
the group.
• Can excite the imagination.
• Communicative relationships and work in teams.
10. THE DISADVANTAGE IN THE
SIMULATION:
• Requires a relatively long time.
• Rely heavily on student activity.
• More likely to require use of learning
resources.
• Many students do not like this method.
