Beyond Babble

- a Project Worthmore training focused on encouraging language learning through connection, fun, and friendship

Whether you are volunteering in the family partner program or in English classes, working with refugees very often means learning to navigate language barriers. Encountering a new language can be frustrating and fascinating, exhausting and enlightening, hilarious and humbling. What can you do to help accompany somebody through such a process? How can you build a relationship across language barriers? What tools, resources, and best practices exist for language acquisition?

Come and join us for Beyond Babble, where we will explore these questions, and learn new ways to encourage language learning. Please come ready to share your own insights and experiences and open your mind to new ones!

We are asking that everyone who attends this event be fully vaccinated.  If you are not vaccinated but would still like to do the training, please let me know and we will make sure you get a recording.
