Description

With millions of Latinos wanting to improve their English and millions of Anglos wanting to improve their Spanish, you’d think there would be lots of programs in America for them to help one another. There aren’t. Steve Leveen has looked. That’s why He was thrilled when his friend Caroline Doughty alerted him to a fellow in Denver who had started one.

The America the Bilingual podcast is part of the Lead with Languages campaign of ACTFL — The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.

Check out our episode notes at Americathebilingual.com where you’ll find links to Sharelingo, photos of the people we’ve interviewed, and, as usual, some bonus material.

This episode was hosted by Steve Leveen, and our producer Fernando Hernández, who also does sound design and mixing. Associate producer is Beckie Rankin. Editorial consultant is Maja Thomas, Editorial and Brand director is Mim Harrison. Graphic arts are created by Carlos Plaza Design Studio.
