Neurolinguistic Programming by Schenk, Yanícola and Laisa
- 1. Inglés y su enseñanza Teacher: Martin, Patricia Students: Laisa, Leila Schenk, Paula Yanícola, Belén Second First
- 2. NLP is a collection of techniques, patterns and strategies for assisting effective communication, personal growth and change, and learning. It is based on a series of underlying assumptions about how the mind works and how people act and interact. It was first developed by John Grindler and Richard Bandler in the mid-1970s. John Grindler They were essentially interested in discovering how successful communicators achieved their success Richard Bandler
- 3. The neuro part of NLP is concerned with how we experience the world through our five senses and represent it in our minds through our neurological processes The linguistic part of NLP is concerned with the way the language we use shapes, as well as reflects, our experience of the world. We use language-in thought as well as in speech- to represent the world to ourselves and to embody our beliefs about the world and about life. The programming part of NLP is concerned with training ourselves to think, speak, and act in new and positive ways in order to release our potential and reach those heights of achievement which we previously only dreamt of.
- 4. Four key principles lie at the heart of NLP: Outcomes: Rapport: Sensory acuity: Flexibility: The goals or ends. NLP claims that knowing precisely what you want helps you achieve it. This principle can be expressed as “know what you want” A factor that is essential for effective communication – maximizing similarities and minimizing differences between people at a nonconscious level. This principle can be expressed as “establish rapport with yourself and then with others” Noticing what another person is communicating, consciously and nonverbally. This can be expressed as “use your senses. Look at, listen to, and feel what is actually happening”. Doing things differently if what you are doing is not working: having a range of skills to do something else or something different. This can be expressed as: “keep changing what you do until you get what you want”
- 5. Thirteen presuppositions that guide the application of NLP in language learning and other fields: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Mind and body are interconnected: they are parts of the same system, and each affects the other. The map is not the territory: we all have different maps of the world. There is no failure, only feedback… and a renewed opportunity for succes. The map becomes the territory: what you believe to be true either is true or becomes true. Knowing what you want helps you get it. The resources we need are within us. Communication is nonverbal as well as verbal. The nonconscious mind is benevolent. Communication is nonconscious as well as conscious. All behaviour has a positive intention. The meaning of my communication is the response I get. Modeling excellent behaviour leads to excellence. In any system, the element with the greatest flexibility will have the most influence on that system.
- 6. Revell and Norman’s book (1997) on NLP in English-language teaching seeks to relate each of these principles to language teaching. Just as Bandler and Grinder modeled NLP on the practices of successful therapists, so teachers are expected to model their teaching on expert teachers they most admire. If you want to be an excellent teacher, model excellent teachers. Look at what they do, how they act, what sort of relationships they have with their students and colleagues. Ask then how they feel about what they do. What are their beliefs? Second, position them. Imagine what it’s like to be them. As you learn techniques and strategies, put them into practice. Share modeling strategies with students. Set the project of modeling good learners. Encourage them to share and try out strategies they learn. If you want to speak a language like a native speaker, model native speakers. (Revell and Norman 1997; 116) According to NLP, they seek to apply the principles in their teaching and this leads to different responses to many classroom events and processes.
- 7. NLP is not a language teaching method. It is a humanistic philosophy and set of beliefs and suggestions based on popular psychology, designed to convince people that they have the power to control their own and other people’s lives for the better, and practical prescriptions on how to do so. As Revell and Norman comment, the assumptions on which NLP are based need not to be accepted as the absolute truth, but acting as if they were true can make a world of difference in your life and in your teaching.
