As a former English teacher in an Asian country, I thoroughly agree with many of the concepts and techniques in this book, such as using the five senses, role-playing, and simulation. Especially for younger children, whose minds are like little sponges, being hands-on is really the way to go.This book is a bit more academic than what the layperson might be used to, however it's accessible to both educators and parents. The Didactic Activities section was very useful for some of my final classes.TPR is fantastic because it can be used with any age and any level of learner.
