The Bilingual Revolution: The Future of Education is in Two Languages

by Fabrice Jaumont

 

Book Signing Bilingualism Fabrice Jaumont Alliance Francaise de Los Angeles February 2018

 

The Bilingual Revolution: The Future of Education is in Two Languages tells the story of a grassroots movement that emerged out of the dedicated involvement of motivated parents, educators, and community actors willing to create and support dual language programs in public schools.
Combining insight on learning and living in two languages, the book shares practical applications and examples of bilingual education, from preschool to high school. With New York City as a backdrop, Fabrice Jaumont, from a personal and scholarly perspective, recognizes in his book the successes and setbacks of these programs through vignettes that feature the parents and educators he helped initiate bilingual programs in their schools.

 

On Thursday February 15th, Fabrice Jaumont will give a talk about the Future of Education in Two Languages and sign his book “The Bilingual Revolution“.
