Dialogue With RCS: We have called it a Magic Table dialogue group. It could be called a dialogue for peace. It can also be an English language dialogue.
As an English Language practice group our dialogue is a very productive way to practice any level of English. The beginning learner has a focused, listening practice, a focused hearing practice, important steps to good pronunciation skills. At the same time the beginner is getting contextual understanding practice.
This
practice group can be of considerable interest to a native speaker of
English. Such an English speaker can learn fun, empowering, culture
enhancing rules of Magic Table Dialogue. He, or she, can also learn
dialogue for peace skills for dealing with and appreciating the
assumptions and opinions very different from his own. She can also make
friends with individuals of a language and culture from her own.
A typical learner of English can build his or her word power by hearing targeted words in context. She also learns to hear the pronunciation, enunciation, and accent of a variety of English speakers. She will hear a number of persons each speak a given word in their own way. A learner may choose to listen for, say, pronunciation or she may choose to focus on contextual meaning. Practice is the main aim here.
Each participant also has opportunities to speak and to be heard. A speaker will have his speech heard by a very interested group of listeners. A speaker will be closely listened to as she expresses herself.
Our dialogue is not a substitute for your other language studies. It is very appropriate supplementary practice. In learning to speak a language appropriate practice is necessary.
