What does language learning have to do with wisdom? A lot! A language is the spirit of a people, containing thousands of years of knowledge embedded in that people’s culture.

Just as the depths of our inner being is where we ultimately must mine the precious resources with which to build a more whole, liberated self, on a collective level, language—which comes with myth, song, and storytelling—contains an archive of wisdom, stored for millennia, reflecting the culture that uses it as well as humanity as a whole.

My first conscious exploration of the human experience beyond my own narrow, first-person view came through learning another language. I’ve now studied ten besides English, reaching an advanced level of proficiency in a few of them. Each one opened me up to an entirely different lens through which to view life, humanity, and the world, but at the same time has proven to me over and over that there is something foundational about the human experience that is shared all over the globe.

*Note that my level of proficiency is different for each language I offer lessons in. I am only native in English. However, through many years and countless hours spent learning a variety of languages from different language families, I have a firm grasp of helpful strategies that lead to quick acquisition and long-lasting retention, as well as the common pitfalls that block progress.
