The Power of Total Physical Response (TPR)

Total Physical Response (TPR) is a teaching method that involves students responding to commands in the target language through physical actions. It is based on the idea that language learning is facilitated by linking language with movement. ITTT, one of the leading TEFL and TESOL providers worldwide, emphasizes the importance of incorporating TPR in ESL classrooms to enhance language acquisition.
