Introduction

You have just arrived in another country and want to study the language. There are a number of schools which promise that they will teach you to speak fluently. While telling you they will teach you to speak they will actually teach you to read, to write, and to memorize grammar rules, but they will fail to retrain your tongue so that you can speak their language.

Or, you may be in an area where there is little formal language study available. You may find a small school claiming to teach the language. Again, however, the language instruction will likely do little to retrain your tongue to actually speak that new language.

In either case, you face the same obstacle. In the one, there are prestigious institutions which expose you to the most current methods and enriched cultural life, but they will fail to provide the necessary retraining so that you can rapidly learn to speak. In the other, there are inadequately prepared schools wanting to teach you their language without having a notion of what learning to speak a new language entails.

This book was written to tell you what you can do to effectively learn a new language. It will give you important information regarding methods to use whether you enroll in the prestigious university's language program, or study in a remote area with few formal language resources. Its primary purpose, however, is to show you how to retrain your mind—and your tongue—in order to acquire a new language.

With that information, you can learn to speak your target language at a much faster rate regardless of the resources available to you.

Throughout this book, I will emphasize spoken language.

Chapter 1: The Proprio-Kinesthetic Sense in Language Learning explains the concept on which this method is built. The remaining chapters tell you how to apply the information as you learn your new target language.

The appendix material is taken from the free downloadable website course Spoken English Learned Quickly (www.FreeEnglishNow.com). The appendices demonstrate various types of spoken language exercises which you could develop in your target language as you continue to study.

I wish you the best of success as you begin learning your new language.
