WHAT IS TPR?
Total Physical Response (TPR) is a language teaching method
built around the coordination of speech and action; it
attempts to teach language through physical (motor) activity.
In TPR, instructors give commands to students in the target
language, and students respond with whole-body actions.
Total physical response is often used alongside other methods
and techniques. It is popular with beginners and with young
learners, although it can be used with students of all levels
and all age groups.
