If a person takes the time to really look at the world, one of the most beautiful things is the abundance of different cultures and languages which this planet has to offer. Different cultures and languages offer different perspectives on life and yet one of the most difficult things a person can do in this life is find a way of bridging the gap between languages and understanding where a person is coming from and who views the world a little differently.
Many nations offer language courses to help others not only learn to speak and understand someone from another country, but to bridge the gap in understanding between cultures as well, but the difficulty is in finding the right methods of educating people on learning these languages. That is where author Cheol Beom LEE’s Ace Foreign Language Education: Introduction to the Babble Training Method comes into play. The book not only helps determine the faults in original methods to learn foreign languages but introduces the importance of learning these languages and how this new method can help improve people’s understanding of foreign language studies overall.
The book is such an insightful guide to the world of foreign language education, a subject not spoken of enough in our world. Especially when the world feels so divided, even in an individual nation, it is more important than ever before to try and expand a person’s knowledge and understanding of the world by adopting more than a singular language, such as the mother tongue (one’s natural language). The author writes in a way that feels both educational and conversational all at once, keeping the reader engaged in the message of the book and driving them forward to adopt this new method of learning foreign languages.
Thoughtful in its delivery, this book is perfect not just for non-fiction readers, but for educators as well who are looking for new ways to reach students learning foreign languages. The book offers not only insight into how Babble Training works, but guided methods of putting Babble Training to use, from Babble Training for acquisition and using repetitive noises and words to better learn the language, to Babble Training for Oral Proficiency and the multiple levels that it entails. Honest and engaging, this book does a remarkable job of walking readers and educators alike through the process of this brand-new method of learning foreign languages with ease and understanding.
