English Language Teachers (ELT): Under The Covers

How to be a teacher everyone remembers? You teach like Michel Thomas! Michel Thomas was a polyglot language teacher, author, and Holocaust survivor. He was born in Poland in 1914 and grew up in Germany. He fled to France before the outbreak of World War II, and was later arrested by the Nazis and sent to a series of concentration camps. After the war, he moved to the United States, where he began teaching languages. Michel Thomas developed his own method of language teaching, which is based on the idea that students can learn a new language quickly and efficiently by breaking it down into its component parts and building it up again. He emphasized on the use of repetition and association to help students learn quickly and effectively. He believed that traditional grammar-based language instruction was ineffective, and that students should learn a language by listening and speaking it, rather than by analyzing and memorizing grammar rules. Michel Thomas's language teaching method is widely known and popular. He recorded a series of audio courses, which have been used by millions of students worldwide. He also wrote several books on his method of language teaching. He passed away in 2005, but his method continues to be used and praised by many language learners and teachers.
