I've had some conversations about two things that I'd love to share with students this week during English week but I'd like some resources. Sorry if these were sent but I can't find anything. Any videos or studies would be great to have. The first is about how long it takes for your brain to adjust to L2 after it has been in english. I want to use this as a way to impress the importance of staying in L2. Secondly, is the amount of hours it takes to get from Novice Low to Intermediate Mid or High. Would love to talk about that as well to illustrate how it takes a lot of effort to learn a language. Yet, to partner that with some of the other videos and info that have been going around on this listserv regarding how quickly you can learn basics and communicate; I think it would be a nice combination. Thanks for any info you can pass on. Shawn Diez MS Spanish / MS Counselor shawn_diez@xxxxxxxxxxxxx cell: 503-866-7678 *"I am RPA. We are One." *
