Conversation in The Thinking Method is not practice through repetition. It is structured interaction where language is developed through meaning, ideas, and real communication.
Each session is designed to help learners move from understanding to expression, using language as a tool for thinking rather than memorizing fixed phrases.
All conversation formats share the same foundation: comprehension and expression, with continuous integration of correction and explanation within natural communication.
