Print on Demand. This book teaches how to teach modern European languages, a subject that had been neglected until the political and social changes brought about by the French Revolution led to a greater need for communication. The author, a foreign language teacher with over twenty years of experience, argues that the existing methods used for teaching languages, which focus on rules or whole memorized phrases, are ineffective. Instead, he advocates for a method based on the way children naturally learn their native language, gradually introducing new words and phrases in context and requiring students to use them actively in speaking and writing. The author provides a detailed explanation of his method, including how to use it in the classroom, and argues that it is a more effective and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language. The book is a valuable resource for language teachers looking to improve their methods and for anyone interested in the history and theory of language teaching. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

Other policies
Please note that we cannot accept cancellation requests once an order has been placed.
All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.
A cancellation, however, is a manual, multi-step request that must pass through several systems. By the time such a request reaches the appropriate stage, the book has almost always been printed, packed, or already dispatched, which makes cancellation impossible.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
Please also make sure your address is correct before ordering as we will no be able to intervene and make changes before the book is shipped.
We can provide digital samples for all our print books ahead, so don't hesitate to reach out.
Returns
As a small publisher we do not have the facilities to resell returned books, so any returned book will be recycled. If the book is damaged or defective please continue with the return process, and thank you for letting us know so that we can improve our products. If you’re returning for another reason, however, please consider whether you could donate or gift the book instead so that it avoids the waste pile.
Thank you in advance!
