À propos des auteurs: Stephen Mark "Gil" Silvers has a master's degree in Spanish from the University of California (UCLA). He has nearly forty years of classroom experience, having begun his career as a U.S. Information Agency English Teaching Fellow at the Manaus Brazilian-American Cultural Institute (ICBEU) in 1972. There, in addition to teaching, he was also responsible (along with two other teachers) for the teacher-training courses. From 1974 until 2003 he was an instructor in the Federal University of Amazonas's Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, where he taught all levels of English, as well as American Literature and the methodology course for future English teachers. His work with TPR began there, and included the coordination of a TPR training course for teachers in the Amazonas state public schools, funded by the Brazilian Ministry of Education, under the Program for the Development of New Methodologies. With the help of TVE Amazonas (the Amazonas state educational television station), he also produced two films, one documenting TPR in a university setting, and the other in a junior high school setting. From 2004 until 2010, he taught English to engineers at CT-PIM, a science and technology center for the Manaus industrial pole. There, with help from the company's computer department, he created and developed English Room, a website for EFL/ESL learners. He was a presenter at the Twelfth Annual TESOL Convention in Mexico City, and made presentations at various BRAZ-TESOL conventions and ENPULI conferences (a Brazilian national conference of university-level English teachers). He is the author of Listen and Perform* (Sky Oaks), The Command Book* (Sky Oaks), Point and Touch: Grammar and Vocabulary Exercises for Beginning EFL Students (Federal University of Amazonas) and Listen and Act (special editions for the Amazonas state public schools). He is retired and lives in Seattle, where he continues to work on and develop EFL/ESL teaching materials.

Dr. James J. Asher is emeritus professor of psychology and former associate dean at San Jose State University, where he was honored with the Outstanding Professor Award. He has degrees in psychology from the University of New Mexico and the University of Houston with postdoctoral training at the University of Washington (Linguistics), Stanford University (Research in Educational Psychology), and the Defense Language Institute West Coast (Arabic). His research into language acquisition has been funded by grants from the Office of Education, the Office of Naval Research, the Department of Defense, and the State of California. He has written more than a hundred articles for such journals as Child Development, The Journal of Humanistic Psychology, Psychological Reports, The Journal of Special Education, The Modern Language Journal, The International Review of Applied Linguistics, The Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, and Psychology Today. Dr. Asher has been invited to demonstrate his stress-free "Total Physical Response" (known world-wide as TPR) approach at several hundred elementary, high schools and universities, including the University of California, Stanford University, the University of Texas, New York University, the University of Hawaii, the University of Alaska, and Cambridge University in England. His classic video demonstrations of TPR with children and adults continue to guide language teachers around the world.
