European Day of Languages (26/9/2022)

 

For those wishing to celebrate the European Day of Languages in London, we would like to bring to your attention this event at a stunning London rooftop location for a live discussion with our expert panel of leading academics and practitioners. Thomas and Dina are on the expert panel.

During this lively conversation with Q&A, Rowan Hooper, podcast editor at New Scientist, host of the New Scientist Weekly podcast and author of Superhuman – Life at the Extremes of Mental and Physical Ability, will lead a discussion with a team of experts to reveal the cognitive benefits of bi- and multilingualism, including:

  • How language learning can improve our memory
  • The impact of learning languages through music
  • How language learning can improve overall brain health
  • How our emotions are influenced by language learning 
  • Suggestions for teaching and teachers, policy, advocacy and more
