We interview our first
guest, Betty Lou Leaver (PhD, Pushkin Institute), former Provost of
the Defense Language Institute who is now working as the Executive
editor of MSI Press and as an international educational
consultant.
Tune in as the podcast host Dr. Natalie McCauley and her guest
discuss the evolution of foreign language education,
task-based and content-based instruction, teaching "the whole
class" and making sure that students of all personality types and
learning styles feel comfortable and get the most of their
classroom experience. Betty Lou also shares with our listeners her
very special 20-minute introduction into Russian alphabet.
