Description
Mario Rinvolucri, co-author of "Dictation Techniques," shares practical methods beyond the book's scope. For confidence and language excellence, try "Sandwich Dictation" where you initiate a story, and students complete it. Beginners benefit from "Air Dictation," writing sentences in the air, and "Last Three Letter Dictation," focusing on the word endings. "First Letter + Number Dictation" enhances visualization. "Bilingual Dictation" uses the mother tongue with key words in English for context. Even at higher levels, "Democratic Dictation" engages students by allowing them to write down only what they agree with. These techniques enrich dictation beyond traditional use, fostering engagement and learning
