Foreign Women Taught
English by Volunteers
By JOSEPH A. ST. AMANT
Los Angeles - (UPQ - An oia
but very simple method of
English language instruction
is in use at the University of
Southern California to help
the wives of foreign students
feel at home in strange sur
roundings. The informal program was
started by a group of faculty
wives headed by Mrs. Milton
Kloetzel, wife o the graduate
school dean.
A half dozen non-English-speaking
wives of students en
listed for the program and
Mrs. Kloetzel reported they
had great success in learning
basic words of English and

adjusting to shopping and so
cial life.
The method used is the
"each one teach one" system
devised by Frank Laubach, an
American missionary who
taught English to jungle peo
ple in the Philippine islands
30 years ago.
The faculty wives who vol
unteered as teachers attended
classes to learn the method.
Then they paired off with the
students' wives one from
Iran, two from Egypt and
others from South America.
"The teachers do not have
to learn the foreign language
of the pupil," Mrs. Kloetzel
said. "The teaching is done
with charts and simple draw
ings and the pupils learn to
speak, read and write Eng
lish simultaneously. The
charts are really very effec
tive. The letter 'b,' for ex
ample, is illustrated with a
bird. The teacher repeats the
sound and points to the bird.
The system is based on the
idea that if you hear a thing
repeated five times it is yours.
Sentences
"From the letter sounds,
the students progress to a sim
ple sentence like 'this is a
bird' and so on through the
alphabet."
"The method is fascinat
ing," Mrs. Kloetzel said. "A
person following it will have
a basic speaking and reading
vocabulary of the 800 most
used words in the language
enough to read signs and
labels on cans and to partici
pate in simple conversation."
She expects the learning
group to be larger because of
new enrollments of exchange
i students in the fall and looks
! forward to helping the lonely
I young wives.
"Many of them are very
young," she says. "Some of
them know a little English
but are timid about trying to
speak it . . . without help,
they would look back on their
years at an American univer
sity as a nightmare of lone
liness." Plans for Meeting
