Paragraph reading: “The problem is this: few students - less than 5% - are able to endure the stressful nature of formal school training in languages. The task is to invent or discover instructional strategies that reduce the intense stress that students experience.”
I’ve been reading “Learning Another Language Through Actions” by Asher after talking to Jon Cowart for the pod, and this last paragraph resonated with me - almost 50 years since the first publication of the book. #LangChat

Cynicism is not a language we can indulge in. We must choose MORE joy. @blessingoffor.bsky.social #ACTFL24
