Suggestopedia - Language Center Astoria Group: Principles and Laws of Suggestopedic Courses:
✔️ ️ Suggestopedia is based on seven basic principles or the so-called laws that are applied simultaneously during the course of the language training, as described by its founder, Prof. Georgi Lozanov.
✔️ ️ Suggestopedia is a combination of pedagogy, psychology, and art, which also determines the character of the atmosphere during the Suggestopedic course. The basis of the training is that the trainee must be predisposed, to remain calm and positive, to feel surrounded by friends and aesthetics. Thanks to the relaxing consciousness, combined with the stress-free activation of concentration and the classical arts of music and painting, not only better and long-lasting results are achieved but also the knowledge is spontaneously assimilated, without building a language barrier or stress. The main task of Suggestopedic teachers is to support their students during their entire training, giving them peace of mind and confidence. In this way, they activate their ability to memorize and play without fear of error.
❤️SUGGESTOPEDIA – TEACHING WITH LOVE
Our professionals know that without the love of man, the teaching process and the communication between people, the desired long-term results cannot be achieved. According to Professor Lozanov, when attending a Suggestopedia training, learning becomes a source of passion, motivation, and inspiration for the student. It is at this point that both creativity and productivity during the learning process are distinguished by high efficiency, in the absence of stress and fatigue. Through the overall organization of the learning process a comfortable, friendly atmosphere is achieved, accompanied by high productivity, serenity and trust. Communication is easier and enjoyable, and training leads to high and long-lasting results.
🐦SUGGESTOPEDIA – FREEDOM OF THINKING
During a suggestopedia training, each student has the opportunity to choose the suitable techniques to acquire long-term knowledge and skills to discover his / her reservations – more logically or emotionally, primarily through active or passive attention, verbal and non-verbal stimulus provided by the lecturer – Suggestoped. One of the many stimuli that Suggestopedia offers (suggests) is compliance with the free will of the student, as freedom is not necessary but spontaneous.
🎭APPLICATION OF CLASSICAL ART AND AESTHETICS IN SUGGESTOPEDIA TRAINING
Classical art and aesthetics are an inseparable part of the Suggestopedia courses. They are particularly effective mediators of positive suggestion, creating a pleasant atmosphere and conditions for increased receptivity and communicative activity in a state of optimal psychorelaxation. Suggestopedia is a particular kind of pedagogical art that helps to remove barriers to learning fear or fear of speaking and communicating in a foreign language. Classical art is introduced through specially selected works of classical music, songs, theater, literary works, reproductions of masterpieces of fine arts, etc.
👨🏫TEACHER’S CONFIDENCE THAT SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY IS HAPPENING
The conviction that something extraordinary happens during the learning process leads to a state of inspiration for the teacher and it’s transmitted naturally to the students. When his beliefs and expectations have focused on the discovery of students’ memory and creative reserves, this also reflects their own expectations of being at the level of reserves, with much greater efficiency. This teacher’s conviction cannot be played and its authenticity is easily perceived peripherally by voice, gestures and all non-verbal behavior. Here is how the weak signals emanating from the lecturer, in harmony with the didactic means of reflection, can lead to the revealing of the deeper potential for teaching the person.
THE PRINCIPLE OF SUGGESTOPEDIA: WHOLE - PART, PART - WHOLE; PART THROUGH THE WHOLE
THE PRINCIPLE: WHOLE – PART, PART – WHOLE; PART THROUGH THE WHOLE – SUGGESTOPEDIA
Learning a discipline or subject is always part of a wider context in which we see the place of this discipline or subject because our brain perceives the surrounding world in its entirety. Thus, for example, the elements of a foreign language should always be studied in the context of the whole, in a meaningful relation to each other and not as isolated grammatical or lexical units. Everything is part of a larger whole – the letter is part of the word, the word – part of the sentence, the sentence – part of the text and all together make up the meaning that the human being perceives in a complex way. The communicative text, containing all the elements, is the basis of Suggestopedic textbooks and is the starting point of the global approach while providing an opportunity for detailed consideration in each element as well as finding its place in the whole.
📗MULTIPLE INCREASED EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL THROUGH SUGGESTOPEDIA
When it comes to Suggestopedia, the material that is worked with is always repeatedly elevated compared to the common understanding of what volume of knowledge can be perceived at a given time. And this is understandable, as diversity and the multitude of incentives are a must for freedom of perception – on an active and passive level, as well as to achieve higher levels of perception as a whole. The moment when logical thought ceases to control the process, that is, consciously learning the material that is more voluminous than expected, begins a process of natural learning at a background level. The global themes in which the selected material is structured give the opportunity to see the general picture, to trace and absorb very quickly the essential characteristics of a given language phenomenon, which leads to increased motivation and, consequently, a lack of fatigue.
🔑
THE SUGGESTOPEDIA – THE GOLDEN PROPORTION
Golden Proportion, Divine Proportion – these are all titles of the same proportion represented by the Greek letter φ, with a value of approximately 1,618 … This is not only a mathematical concept but a symbol of beauty, harmony, and perfection in art, science, and nature. In Suggestopedia, the Golden Proportion is used to determine the duration and the ratio of the individual components in the learning environment and the learning process, which further aids the discovery of learners’ reserves and helps them learn without fatigue.
