I think the Total Physical Response method is a better way to learn Japanese language. According to Jensen, there is a connection between memory and physical action where brain and body can remember together. In a Total Physical Response class, the teacher gives commands like “stand up” and “sit down”. Students learn the commands by responding physically. They do not have practice in reading skill, but that is not a problem. The goal is only to listen and respond because this language is usually used in speech communication.
