Attitude

If you want to gain altitude in your learning, then you also need to develop attitude. All attitudes are learned attitudes and that is why Lozanov placed great emphasis on removing the limiting beliefs of the learner before commencing the learning process.

Develop a will to succeed. Studies done in neuro linguistics focus on concepts such as inner dialogue, positive affirmations, anchoring a successful experience and reliving with intensity, defining the benefits/advantages and establishing a clear purpose for learning. Passion + vision + action = success!

Within an Accelerated Learning classroom you could:
• take time to explain how the brain works
• explain the different learning styles and complete a quick checklist
• arouse interest by immediate relevance
• visualise the outcome through examples
• give learners a sense of control through the development of class rules
• create a class motto
• ‘colour’ the environment (music, posters = sound and visual stimuli)
• teach the value of self talk
• generate enjoyment and fun in learning
• make it safe to make mistakes
• foster a ‘culture’ of success
• include the power of suggestion.
