Kumaravadivellu's KARDS model.

Hello everyone.

Here I share with you the five principles from KARDS model proposed by Kumaravadivelu.

Also, I answer the question asked by professor Insuasty.

I have always liked the idea of learning English (specifically). I do not remember having faced any struggle while getting used to the phonemes and linguistic aspect.
