Language Policy Consulting Chats Episode 4 Valerie Linguist/Resilience Trainer/Woodworker

Welcome to Language Policy Consulting Chats. In this space, we focus on conversations around linguistic diversity, language policy research, and personal experiences that put all of those factors into context for us in everyday settings. My name is Dr. Xiomara Rivera Pagán today we talk to my good friend, Valerie Acosta. Valerie is a veteran and current Russian linguist, Resilience Trainer, Woodworker and Mom. We chat about our ever-changing views on our own linguistic ability, the language around empathy, and strategies to create space for your and others' linguistic diversity. 

Enjoy today's conversation with my talented friend, Valerie Acosta.
