An Introduction to the Bilingual Method of Teaching Foreign Languages

Alexander, Loren R.

Foreign Language Annals, 11, 3, 305-13, May 78

The bilingual method establishes meaning immediately through the mother tongue and, initially, the printed word. The eight steps of the bilingual method can be applied to any text. Teachers must be bilingual and must develop facility in the steps of the method in order to provide rapid cuing. (Author/SW)
