English immersion  

Definition

  • English immersion, an approach to teaching English by providing instruction solely through English, holds considerable appeal in the American imagination. Surely, the best way to learn a language is to immerse oneself in it, many believe, and the more deeply and thoroughly the immersion, the more quickly the language will be learned.
