On today’s episode, I interview Bryce Hedstrom – an award-winning teacher trainer in northern Colorado.
Bryce has a varied and fascinating history in language learning and teaching, graduating in Spanish before teaching the language in public schools and at the college level for 30 years.
He’s worked with clients in the business world, including Fortune 500 corporations and has received multiple awards for his work implementing methods for language instruction that centre around comprehensible input and storytelling.
Moreover, as we’ll soon discover, he’s taken an interest in learning Mandarin, applying similar methods to those that were so effective in his teaching career.
With so much to cover in this interview, it was hard to know where to start. So I began by asking Bryce how his fascination with languages all began.
