The document discusses the suggestopedia method of teaching developed by Georgi Lozanov. It involves creating a relaxing environment with Baroque music and having students alternately actively and passively read texts while following the teacher. The method aims to use positive suggestion and now focuses more on "desuggestive learning." It involves four phases - introduction, concert session, elaboration, and production. The role of the teacher is important in guiding activities like games and songs to help students learn effectively. While it can be useful for some students, it requires significant effort from teachers and may not work as well in large classes.

“suggestion” and “pedagogy”.
• A common misconception is to link
“suggestion” to “hypnosis”.
• However, Lozanov intended it in the sense of
offering or offering or proposing emphasisng
student choice.

4. Three Phases
1. Deciphering :- The teacher introduces the
grammar and lexis of the content.
• In most materials the foreign language text is
on the left half o the page with a translation
on the right half of the page with a translation
on the right half, i.e. meanings are conveyed
via the mother tongue not unlike the bilingual
method.

2. concert session ( active and passive ) :-
• In the active session, the teacher reads the
text at a normal speed, sometimes intoning
some words, and the students follow.
• In the passive session, the students relax and
listen to the teacher reading the text calmly.
• Baroque music is played in the background.

3. Elaboration :-
• The students finish off what they have learned
with dramas, songs, and games.

of experience were done: introduction,
concert session, elaboration, and production.

• Teachers should not act in a direct way,
although this method is teacher-controlled
and not student-controlled.
• For example, they should act as a real partner
to the students, participating in the activities
such as games and songs “normally” and
“genuinely”.

9. Some Important Factors
• Covering a huge bulk of learning material.
• Structuring the material in the syggestopedic
way: global-partial- partial-global, and global
in the part-part in the global, related to the
golden proportion.
• As a professional, on one hand, and a
personality, on the other hand, the teacher
should be a highly regarded professional,
reliable and credible.

10. Continue….

percent expectation of positive results.

teach them with personal participation
through games, songs, classical arts, and
pleasure.
