Never heard of Affective Language Learning Resident Educator?
I hadn't either until I had this idea. I got this idea and came up with the concept when I visited the International Storytelling Center in Jonesboro and there they always had resident storytellers who came from far away and stayed for a week. These professionals told stories, gave courses, and brought new knowledge and insights to the center. I thought that then I should try it with language schools around the world!

Booking me as your Affective Language Learning Resident Educator!
I am currently on a world tour sharing affective language learning and experiencing the richness and diversity of our world. Check my global calendar to see if I am in your geographic area near the date you are interested. Even if I am not, write me and then together we can organize courses in your area and also at schools in your region.
Accommodation
Nothing better than staying with local people to experience the richness of a culture. I am always delighted to be hosted by students, teachers, or friends. I have already had lots of fun staying in the actual classrooms sleeping on a futon! Any room with a bed, a desk, a chair, and wi-fi is just perfect!
