The technique you mentioned regarding the use of pictures during foreign language learning is a great one, considering that the work in cognitive linguistics and psychology have already demonstrated that images help the comprehenders to simulate entities described in the sentence, and thus induce language comprehension and learning. Also, I would like to mention the other problem students of all nationalities face while learning English. It has to do with the construction “verb-pronoun (noun) + infinitive”. It appears that students with a basic and, sometimes, intermediate level of English tend to say, for instance, “I want that you help me” instead of “I want you to help me”. At least that’s what I’ve noticed in native Spanish speakers.
