The teacher guides students through mimicry, while students practice new concepts. It is a constructivist approach that focuses on discovery, creativity, and problem-solving using accompanying materials.

The method emphasizes speaking, pronunciation, vocabulary in context, and syntax, with the goal of avoiding use of the native language.
