Incidence of the TPR technique to improve the english listening skills for students attending the pre-school "Luigi Galvani" in Quito, province of Pichincha during the first term, 2014-2015

Description: The current investigation exposes its content based on causes and consequences within the English learning process by means of the TPR (total physical response) on the learners' listening skill development at "Luigui Galvani" preschool in sections A, B and C, where boys and girls do not understand basic commands in English when listening to the teacher's instructions. The English teacher has not yet adopted strategies to make students listen to commands and perform the activities efficiently so that these approaches can promote the English learning, motivate them, and develop cognitive skills such as the logical intelligence and the self-learning. The TPR technique is the approach where children are taught to hear English through commands, kinesthetic activities, instruments and tools such as videos, audio recordings, slide presentations, etc. In this way the proposal for this research complements the improvement of the listening skill in the children of the sections A, B and C with listening activities based on ludic strategies as well as TPR strategies, which help them efficiently understand what they hear and increase its potential cognitive.
