J'apprends le français!
Did you know that most languages have distinct overtones, and our ears are naturally tuned to our native language or our mother tongue? Learning a foreign language is more than just memorizing vocabulary and grammar. It’s largely about learning the prosody of speech or the melody, rhythm, and stress patterns in a language. This includes intonation, loudness, and duration. All these elements add meaning beyond words. It’s the ability to correctly convey emotion, intent (like questions vs. statements), and emphasis, making speech natural rather than robotic.
If one is unable to produce the prosody of a language, it’s challenging to hear and pronounce foreign tones accurately. Alfred Tomatis discovered that this hinders pronunciation and memorization.
However, he found a way to train your ears to hear different tones and frequencies. The Tomatis® Language Integration program can significantly speed up language learning, enabling correct pronunciation and quick memorization.
Immerse yourself in a unique language-learning journey with the Tomatis Method. By stimulating auditory perception, this program enables you to absorb linguistic nuances and cadences effortlessly. Experience accelerated language acquisition and enhance your communication skills, paving the way for richer cultural experiences and global connections.
