Insecurities about Language with Karen: The Love of Language and Food!
<p>Hey Language Learners! Welcome back to another amazing interview about Insecurities about Language. In this episode, I spoke with Karen M. Ricks, a Christian wife, Worldschooling mom, and a nomadic chef. Teaching for over 25 years, she has been a Montessorian since her own preschool days. She holds Montessori teaching certifications for guiding children from infancy through elementary. She has cooked professionally, in restaurants, commercial kitchens, and private homes on four different continents over the last decade. After 10 years of teaching in central Japan, where Karen founded and operated her own international Montessori school, she sold it all to begin a nomadic life of full-time travel with her family. Karen spreads her message of embracing a Slow Food Lifestyle, a lifelong love of learning, and education for peace by teaching people of all ages how to cook for themselves and why they need to share that gift with those they love.

Insecurities about Language: The Death of Language within Greta's Family
<p> Welcome Language Learners to the Insecurities about Language podcast: The Death of Language and to an exciting topic I am tackling called the Death of Language...within families! In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing Greta Rodney Thompson, born and raised up on the island of St. Martin, the smallest mass of land to be divided into two countries. She considers herself a true St. Martiner with all the benefits of a multi-cultural upbringing, but also cultural confusion that comes along with being in an environment but not necessarily feeling a part of it. <br>Her maternal side of the family is French and a significant portion moved to Guadeloupe and France. From a very early age Greta realized that there was a disconnect in that she was a part of this family but not able to communicate using the language. Greta decided to make it her goal to improve her French language skills to reconnect with family and inherently learn more about herself. The journey is still ongoing but has led to many gains socially and professionally. Greta is working on bringing more awareness to others about the benefits of multilingualism by sharing stories of others who are bilingual or multilingual and encouraging bilingual education. She does this through her YouTube, Facebook and Instagram page called The Linguistic Isle. She also works with an association called Les Pepites which promotes culture, education and communication in the community.
