The AUGE Method is a new method of teaching English, or rather Globish, the true English spoken today by the international community, developed by Monica Perna and destined to revolutionize teaching by altering the way students approach learning.

The revolutionary didactic protocol bears the name of its creator’s company and was officially presented to the public on October 25, 2021. In fact, the acronym AUGE stands for “Achieve Unbelievable Goals through Experiential Learning.”

But how did the AUGE  Method develop?

Everything started with an attempt to devise a method that would allow students to retain as much of what they had learned as possible, in order to avoid the spiral of failed attempts and relapses that the vast majority of adults who wish to learn English endure.

A research conducted for 3 years, combined with experience as an expat in an English speaking country, led Monica Perna to identify a keystone: experience. The encounter between experience and knowledge gives life to the concept of learning by doing which, explained in the light of Dale’s Cone theory on the ability of the human mind to learn in conditions of active and passive involvement, highlights how only through active learning or that is experiential, we are able to retain up to 90% of the information received and keep it over time.

The AUGE Method is centered on a didactics that systematizes method, immersion, interaction and experience.

The new frontier of language learning is to replace now-outdated language courses or video courses with real-world travel experiences – virtual study. The adult students, who, for obvious reasons of lifestyle, career, and family, could never leave everything to go abroad, now has the opportunity to immerse themselves in a virtual study trip to the United States of America, where, week after week, stage by stage, can achieve the key qualifications foreseen by the RoadMap of language learning, up to the achievement of language fluency.

The importance of “translation” as a key skill to be developed alongside writing, reading, listening, and speaking is recognized. Its effectiveness is being reassessed as a “method” capable of activating both hemispheres of the human brain during the so-called “switch,” i.e. the transition from the source language to the target language.
