I remember my first time . . . being absorbed into a story about something that intrigued me enormously, even though the actual topic is irrelevant at the moment because it started quite innocently as I first read with deep curiosity and anticipation, even during the opening paragraphs of what I was reading, while I was more and more consumed into what it was I hadn't yet known, and wanted to because the story wasn't just about the story as much as it was about desire: wanting to draw me into an experience in my mind that was as real as could be inside in such a way that whatever was on the outside didn't matter as much anymore and perhaps even at all because my attention focused inside on the experience that was unfolding Owen Fitzpatrick Experiencing stories so vividly, like the ones told by great story tellers, the ones that spark every sensory receptor triggering connections in each cortex, from clean bright images to crystal clear sounds, tingling sensations from the surface of your skin to the deepest fiber of your bones, is what creates ideas so profound that they blur the differences between what is reality and what is hallucination, and since it can be very difficult to distinguish these difference means you can build realities around how well you can conversationally and naturally weave the fabric that will be present inside your mind with any subject you want and propagate that to others John La Valle Subject: MÉTODO BARNES He says: I am a professor and I am looking for a method as I am decided that I will open a good English school in the axis Goiânia-Anápolis-Brasilia (those are Brazilian cities in the middle of Brazil) I got your contact through the internet and the indication of your phone many times linked to the Method Barnes. I would like to know the methodology and resources applied as well as the possibility of applying the method to a conventional school. ----------------------I asked him at the answer to contact you. I said we did a partnership in translation that is why my name is there and that you are the creator of the method Good luck Best, Gil Subject: Re: MÉTODO BARNES Gilseane Stefani, Sou professor universitário e procuro o método porque estou decido a abrir uma boa escola de inglês no eixo Goiânia-Anápolis-Brasília. Consegui o seu contato na internet, inclusive com a indicação de um número de telefone (07951048218), várias vezes vinculado do Métdo Barnes. Gostaria de conhecer a metodologia e os recursos empregados bem como a possibilidade de aplicação do método numa escola convecional. Se puder me ajudar, fico grato. Jorge Bezerra - Goiânia / GO

Adjustments Languages such as Italian, Spanish and Portuguese are very similar to English and to each other. Yes, yes your country is wonderful and your coffee is great, relax now. With Portuguese you can change many of your words slightly (adjust them) and they become English words. In fact you don't even have to change your pronunciation. The meaning of communication is the response you get. If people understand you then you are correct. If you want an English accent then get it later, maybe a day later if you want to. The main point of this is many Portuguese words have an extra Syllable. For example Ter-mo (Termo) in Portuguese is 2 syllables and Term in English is 1 syllable. Just by pronouncing 1 syllable less, you have the English word. No translation required. Even with an accent English people will still understand you, so learn it Pronunciation Adjustments: U is pronounced as You in English, U = You, Here's a list, feel free to add to it (use the back of the paper): Portuguese

Hello guys! My name's Gustavo, aka "Guto", I'm 22 going on 23 and Brazilian. To begin with, I think English is the most important language to learn at this moment, especially in the context of globalization. I wonder, what's the most important English skill? What skill must you have to communicate well? I'd say it's fluency! What's fluency? Fluency is the ability to speak and understand a language quickly and easily, without translation. Fluency means you can talk easily with native speakers and that is our main goal here. I'm beginner like most of you and I'm here to exchange some experiences. Luis is an excellent teacher, he's brilliant! I really like his method and his books. So, to have a good teacher like him is a good start. I'm so proud to be one of his students! I think to be a fantastic English speaker, you must learn English with your ears, not just with your eyes, it's an ideology of a North American teacher. In other words, your ears are the key. The best listening must be understandable and repetitive, both of those words are important. You must hear a new word and new grammar many times before you'll understand them instantly. Increase your learning time and also your listening time. Use iPod or MP3 player. Listen to movies. Guys, that way you'll learn English faster! Another great idea is to read a good English dictionary that brings some slangs and most used expressions by natives and then your speech will sound like theirs. I do that and it really works! Copyright Š Perry Barnes 08/30/07 All Rights Reserved in All Media
Read them, make phrases, practise more and more. Your English will come along like mine. You have tried the old ways, now it's time to try something new! Good luck! I wish you success with your English learning! 'Til next time! Gustavo
