The theory of multiple intelligences

 



The theory of multiple intelligences was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, a professor of education at Harvard University. It proposes that the traditional notion of intelligence, based on I.Q. testing, is far too restricted. As an alternative, Dr. Gardner proposes eight different intelligences to account for a larger range of human potential in children and adults.

Tips to learning Spanish


Here are a few tips you may use to assist you on the path to learning Spanish:


Mistakes are good. Be willing to make and correct mistakes quickly and frequently. All successful language learners possess this trait.


Practice daily. Practice with your material, and books, watch Spanish television, listen to Spanish radio, and make Spanish-speaking friends


Keep repeating. Repetition is the mother of skill. All successful language learners become fluent through constant and creative daily repetition.


Memorize through retrieval. Attempt to retrieve daily all previously learned material from memory.


Practice with native Spanish speakers whenever possible.


Good luck,
