@smrms it’s not used too often, but I follow #LanguageRevitalization. I should be better about including hashtags in my linguistics posts.

And while this is genuinely humbling, rest assured that it will only make me more annoying. Your students can be fluent in a year. No more excuses!!

Attached: 2 images The year of the wood snake handed my a** to me in a very unexpected way. I spend all my time telling language educators that their expectations are too low, that their students can become fluent much faster than they think! But then... I said something was impossible...which we then immediately achieved...and I can't frickin believe it.

I know they put your thesis online and I am a big advocate for making research publicly available, but it's still shocking and blush-inducing every time that someone reads or cites your weird little passion manifesto from a former lifetime. 🥰 #education #research #endangeredlanguages #languagerevitalization #highered

The idea that children have to do what we say or we are entitled to inflict suffering upon them is the ideology of the Ep$tein class.

I actually don't think we need help learning to love, to be loving. I think we need permission from others to divest from fear. And being surrounded by people who have come to refuse fear is incredibly freeing. I want for all of us to release superficiality and material obsessions at a much younger age, so that we can be in our worth and our power, and invest in the world the elders know we need to build.

Not to brag💅, but I spend almost all of my time with folks in their 60s, 70s, and 80s, and it's f'n metal🤘. 13/10 would recommend. I often say that my most meaningful learning started after I got my PhD, when I was so craving the chance to learn about life, existence, and broader ways of knowing. I intentionally learned from spiritual teachers, but less intentionally began doing fieldwork with elders of several nations.

Te Papa Apii Rutaki (new name of the school) is now teaching entirely in Cook Islands Māori, in a stand to ensure the language lives on." 🔥

I'm thrilled to share that I've started working as a Language Learning Specialist on Rosetta Stone's Endangered Languages team.

It's really exciting to be able to continue working on digital language learning tools for #LanguageRevitalization, doing work that I'm passionate about.
