Bring it On: The Phrasal verbs.Próxima Publicación.

El Libro "Bring it On: The Phrasal verbs. Un nuevo Enfoque Cognitivo de Enseñanza aprendizaje" ofrece un nuevo enfoque cognitivo para la enseñanza- aprendizaje de estos incómodos verbos ingleses.(427 Phrasal verbs) El enfoque propuesto se aleja de la memorización tradicional del significado al sugerir un aprendizaje basado en nuestra experiencia corporal con nuestro entorno y las metáforas conceptuales, pasando del significado literal al metafórico mediante esquemas mentales que unifican y dan sentido a la diferentes expresiones lingüísticas.

ABOUT ME

At present I am focused on the cognitive and cultural study of the phrasal verbs trying to link both the literal and metaphorical meaning. There is an underlying mental image that permeates the different linguistic expressions that come from our daily contact with reality and is the base to understand and master the meaning of the constructions with particles. This approach is helping students to understand and extend the use of these verbs without the effort of memorising every sense of the Phrasal verb. E-MAIL perezrull@gmail.com

Can't sleep? Try the 4-7-8 breathing technique that claims to help you nod off in 60 SECONDS.

Method has been pioneered by Harvard-trained Dr Andrew Weill
It involves regulating your breathing to various counts of 4, 7 and 8
It lets oxygen better fill the lungs, calms the mind and relaxes muscles

To do the 4-7-8 breathing technique, you first need to exhale completely through your mouth while making a 'whoosh' sound.

Close your mouth and inhale quietly through your nose to a mental count of four.

Now hold your breath for a count of seven.

After this time has elapsed, exhale completely through your mouth, making another whoosh sound for eight second in one large breath.

Now inhale again and repeat the cycle three times for a total of four breaths.
