EXPLORING THE ROLE OF REFRAMING IN ENHANCING SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION: INSIGHTS FROM NEURO-LINGUISTIC PROGRAMMING
Abstract
This article studies a primal NLP exercise used commonly in NLP growth workshops known as reframing, as applied to SLL [1]. "Reframing does this by encouraging learners to adjust negative thinking, reducing anxiety of learning languages together, and motivating students to view language acquisition challenges through a different lens." Using a pre-test and post-test design, an intervention was implemented with a cohort of 50 students with varied language backgrounds for one week in a middle school classroom. In this study, participants had been trained through NLP reframing methods, and the data were analyzed using SPSS. The results showed significant improvements in students’ confidence, emotional resilience and performance with language. Studies highlight the need to appreciate the affective and psychological elements of learning languages. This research shows the path towards reframing the uncertain contingencies and so creating helpful and constructive practices in the classroom, based on an understanding of the mental whiplash trap they typically create. It also opens up new avenues for utilizing NLP in language education, specifically in terms of reducing anxiety and increasing motivation in language learners.
