Neurolinguistic Program to Develop Language Prep School Students’ EFL Discourse Competence, and Their Mindfulness

Abstract

This study aimed to develop prep language school students’ EFL discourse competence, and mindfulness via a neurolinguistic program. Participants were thirty for the experimental group and the same for the control group. A questionnaire on discourse competence, and mindfulness scale were designed and juried. Then, the discourse competence test and mindfulness scale were administered to the participants of the two groups. The program was designed and administered in the first term of 2024, the academic year, and lasted for the entire term with two sessions per week for the experimental group. The study results revealed that the experimental group’s post-results exceeded its pre-results in the post-administration of the instructions. Furthermore, it could be determined that the program substantially improved the stated variables.
