What is TPR learning method?

TPR (Total Physical Response) is the abbreviation of "pure experiential language learning method", which was invented by Dr. James, a famous American experimental psychologist, in the 1970s.

Its theoretical basis lies in: when people learn a language in early childhood, listening and speaking promote their oral and written expression ability. When the information obtained through listening and speaking changes from quantitative to qualitative, children can naturally express themselves in words.
