The E:P:N (Electron, Proton, Neutron) approach to Communicative Language Acquisition (CLA) emphasizes the practical use of language to navigate real-life situations. By fostering dynamic conversations through forensic trialogues in English and Esperanto, this method builds confidence and enhances communication skills more effectively than traditional learning approaches. The process involves evolving through distinct phases and stages, each designed to cultivate productive habits and support personal growth. Celebrate progress and transform your language journey through targeted coaching and measurable skill development.

The E:P:N approach to CLA Communicative Language Acquisition
Communicative Language Acquisition • focuses not on the language itself but on its use in dealing with real life diversities • E:P:N-based CLA builds confidence and hones communication skills quicker than most other learning method
E:P:N conversations • are forensic trialogues on issues of import • written in both English and Esperanto • using the voices of Eleko, Prot, & Njut to facilitate the natural acquisition of native-like competencies
The E:P:N phases & stages • Each of the three E:P:N phases grows from a • worthless stage, to the • productive/competitive • productive/creative & • productive/supportive stages • Each of these twelve stages has its own habits
E:P:N habits go in cycles • During each phase, habits change from • mixed/destructive to • mixed/productive, to • focused/productive, to • mixed creative • On completion of one phase, a soul tends to start the next one in the same order
Where/What am I now? • am I an ELECTRON that gives structure to the atom? • a PROTON who sets the pace? or • a NEUTRON at the atom’s core to help stabilize it?
Where am I going? What can I do? • Stay in current phase, but move to the next stage • Go back to the previous phase, if still productive & desirable • Go to the next logicalphase and rush through stage 1
How am I going to get there? • What habits do I need? • Time management? • Money management? • Languages? • Abilities? (discover!) • Skills? (develop!) • Knowledge? (test!)
How do I make sure I’ll get there ? • Get a private coach • Meet 4-6 hours a week • Read SOGR & SOBW • Make 2-3 calls a day • Write 2-3 notes a day • Journal trialogues to improve needed skills
How will I know I’ve arrived? • I’ve increased my pay in the last six months • I added to my assets in the last 30 days • I increased my skills (measurable by tests) • I added knowledge to up my market value
When is it time to celebrate? • When you know you are an integral part of creative energy – an expression and extension of the Great I AM • When you regularly give more than you expect to get • When you know yourself to be a WEB, a Willfully Energized Brain – an “Intence Agemita Menso” Ex 3:14 & 15 (Jerusalem Bible) "I AM has sent me to you. This is my name for all time; BY THIS NAME I SHALL BE INVOKED FOR ALL GENERATIONS TO COME." See also “I am both Adam & Eve.”
