Why the LSRW (Listen-Speak-Read-Write) Method Guarantees Spoken Fluency

## How Did You Learn Your Mother Tongue?

Think about how you learned to speak your native language as a child: - **Did your mother hand you a grammar rulebook at age two?** No. - **Did you write essays before you could speak?** No.

You **Listened** to sounds around you for a year. Then you attempted to **Speak** simple words. Only when you were 5 or 6 did school teach you how to **Read** and finally **Write**.

Yet, traditional Indian schools invert this natural order: they force children to Read and Write grammar formulas for 12 years without ever giving them an opportunity to Speak!
