Suggestology is tied to :
1) Logical-critical
"That s not possible"
"Others may be able to do that, but not me."
2) Affective-emotional
"I won t do it. It just makes me feel uneasy. I can t explain it
really.
I d rather not, thank you."
3) Ethical
"I really think that s slightly dishonest."
"I don t think it s fair."

PROCEDURE
Comfortable environment
In the classroom, the chairs are arranged semicircle and faced the black or
white board in order to make the students pay more attention and get more
relaxed. The light in the classroom is dim in order to make the students’ mind
more relaxed
The use of music
Use of Baroque music during the learning process. Baroque music, with its 60
beats per minute and its specific rhythm, created the kind of relaxed states of
mind for maximum retention of material.
Peripheral Learning
The students learn English not only from direct instruction but also from
indirect instruction. It is encouraged through the presence in the learning
environment of posters and decoration featuring the target language and
various grammatical information. They are changed everyday.
Free Errors
In the teaching learning process, students who make mistakes are
tolerated, for example in pronouncing the word. The emphasis is on
the content not the structure. Grammar and vocabularies are
presented and given treatment from the teachers, but not dwelt on.
Homework is limited
Students reread materials given in the classroom once before they
go to sleep at night and once in the morning before they get up.
Music, drama and art are integrated in the learning process
They are integrated as often as possible.
TYPICAL TECHNIQUES
Classroom set-up
Emphasis is placed on creating a physical environment that does not "feel"
like a normal classroom, and makes the students feel as relaxed and comfortable as
possible
Peripheral Learning
Students can absorb information "effortlessly" when it is perceived as part
of the environment, rather than the material "to be attended to„
Positive Suggestion
teachers appeal to students' consciousness and subconscious in order to
better orchestrate the "suggestive“ factors involved in the learning situation
Visualization
Students are asked to close their eyes and visualize scenes and events, to help
hem relax, facilitate positive suggestion and encourage creativity from the students
Ss pretend temporarily that they are someone else and perform a role
using the target language
First Concert
Students put aside their scripts and the teacher reads at normal speed
according to the content, not the accompanying pre-Classical or Baroque music - this
typically ends the class for the day
