Zippo Lighter Works Dries



One short definition of NLP is the art of modeling, or decoding experts to reproduce human behavior.

Using NLP is particularly suitable for all areas of training, whether you are school teacher in high school, or professional trainer.

Use language appropriate
You all know that we have five senses. Sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste. In NLP, it has a name: the VAKOG
- Visual
-
Auditory - Kinesthetic (touch, external skin, as internal sensations)
-
Olfactory - Gustatory

But what is less known, but you'll notice right away as soon as one is aware of is that we speak, and we also think as one or more of these five senses.
For example, we can describe yesterday as "a beautiful sunny color" (Visual) or "a day which sounds clear" (hearing) or "that resonates in my head" (hearing) or " which leaves a sweet taste (Taste).

One of the possible causes of non-understanding between teacher and student is simply the language. A trainer very 'visual' who teaches at a pupil very 'kinesthetic' will probably be difficult to understand, where failure to learn.

Flexibility (key word in terms of NLP) is a vital resource for educators, able to adapt to his audience and be comfortable communicating the same message in several different sensory channels. Each student will draw then the information that suits him well. Richard Bandler

also specifies that if the first level is the flexibility of the trainer, the next level is the flexibility of the student. Because ultimately, it is the student who must become able to understand its trainers.


World Model: Understanding the other
"But I do not understand" ... How many times have you heard this little phrase in training? And the trainer to repeat, almost word for word the same explanation ...
Unfortunately, over the same produces more of the same result.

Again NLP provides tools out of this kind of ineffective communication. The first of these tools is of course the meta-model. By its questions
incredibly effective, the teacher can get to get to the place of his pupil to return to what is called "model the world "and thus understand what the student does not understand.
Time saved, decreased stress, ease of learning ... all gains for individual professionals and businesses.

The power of metaphor
Imagine a mathematics class.
The teacher (or trainer if training) explains that the function y = 1 / x is a function that tends to zero as x tends to infinity.

For all the maths (like me) who read this, it seems obvious.
But for others??

Now imagine a scene totally different, yet similar.
We're on a boat at sea we have a glass of oil in hand. The oil fills the glass to a height of, say, 5cm. You see the situation?
Now imagine something not at all green, but we do imagine ... We pour the contents of the glass on the surface of the water.
What will happen?
The oil will spread. Instead of having a height of 5cm as in the beginning, it will flatten out, the stain will spread, more and more. Gradually, as the spot increases in diameter, its thickness decreases correspondingly.
Finally, the stain will cover all the sea (x = spot size = infinity) and it will close a thickness of 0 (y = thickness of the oil stain).

The metaphorical use of the image makes "real" situation is very abstract to the base (y = 1 / x). In his analogy, metaphor helps us to understand. Thanks to Dimitri

Demnard and his book " aid to education by NLP " for this example (and many others to read in this excellent book).

memory and visual channel
You will agree to store a song or music, nothing like the ear canal, "will sing the song in my head". But
for further information ? Such as a grammar rule, the characteristics of a city, the road to visit a client, the structure of the steel plant where you work ...

Again, NLP experts studied, those who know store and retrieve information to determine how most effectively and teach these methods.

Consider just a grammatical example, from the wonderful book "Learning to learn with NLP " Thiry and Yves Alain Lellouche.
How to differentiate " rabbits ate " and "rabbit dining ?
You can use the ear canal, and particularly what is called "internal dialogue" to repeat to you the rule of grammar as the teacher has told you. I confess I do not even remember ...
For cons, I know in my experience the difference. For
" rabbits ate " I the image of a rabbit well sated with the belly full well. For
" rabbits to eat " I the image of a rabbit cooked to perfection with peas and potatoes steaming around.

Use of images is one of the best ways to accelerate learning. Company structure, customer. Characteristics of my product. Request of my client ...

And you?
Many of us face in our professional lives to teaching and learning. Even if it is only to explain to a boss, customer, another employee my work, "to do" and "don'ts".
Learning NLP is a means to gain professional excellence, improve productivity and reduce stress.

the pleasure of discovering what you have done ...
