T1 Bridging the Gap: Leveraging Neuroeducation to Enhance Teaching Methodologies
A1 Martínez García, María Teresa
AB This paper explores how insights from neuroscience can enhance English language teaching (ELT) in South Korea, addressing the persistent achievement gap in English proficiency despite its mandatory inclusion in the curriculum. It emphasizes the importance of aligning teaching methods with brain development. By understanding cognitive functions such as motivation, attention, practice, and feedback, educators can create positive learning environments that foster language acquisition. The study highlightsthe brain’s plasticity and the need for repeated exposure and production to solidify language skills. Additionally, it discusses how emotions influence learning, with positive experiences enhancing memory and negative ones causing anxiety and avoidance. The paper aims to bridge the gap between neuroscience research and practical classroom applications, offering strategies for effective languageteaching that respect the brain’s natural learning processes.
