Habla: The Center for Language and Culture

Habla: The Center for Language and Culture Join a community of international educators who are passionate about crossing cultures and finding new ways to reimagine educational settings.

In 2009 Habla launched an international institute for educators. Teachers, organizational leaders, and artists gathered from Brazil, Argentina, Italy, the United States, and Mexi...co for a week where educators learned innovative approaches for integrating the arts into classroom settings.

Registration is now open for the 2010 Habla Teacher Institute.

Comments from the 2009 Teacher Institute

"The institute seemed to be like a timeless intense moment in which we went from one layer of depth to another, guided by discovery and wonder."

-- Brown Professor of Spanish Nidia Shumacher


"I am permanently changed as a person and teacher as a result of the institute - and that has not usually been the case with teaching seminars/institutes. I will be back!!!"

-- 1st Grade Teacher Kelly Lane
