Teachers, psychologists, and experts in teaching languages believe that the best way to stimulate learning English is not to subject students to formalized and linear methodologies -for example, rote learning - but to encourage imagination and learning through sensory exploration to be able to understand and interpret the world around us. 

This allows the brain to work and learn a second language in the most natural way possible, in the same way that we learned our mother tongue.
