ALC shout out: Thank you for bringing industry members together for a phenomenal conference!

Lark Languages is partnering with a boutique travel company (Life Beyond the Room) to offer language immersion travel opportunities. Our first trip is a Spanish immersion family adventure to Guatemala this spring! Join us!

I am so happy Lark Languages is a member of ALC (Association of Language Companies)! The Montreal conference was AWESOME, and I'm looking forward to reuniting with the ALC family in Florida and New Orleans next.

It's okay to take a break. There's actually research that taking sabbaticals increases creativity and productivity. Take a look at graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister's viral TEDTalk video called The Power of Time Off. https://www.ted.com/talks/stefan_sagmeister_the_power_of_time_off

We'll be taking our own break from posting on social media this summer, but it doesn't mean that we'll be taking a break from teaching!

Ludwig Josef Johann Wittgenstein was an Austrian philosopher who worked primarily in logic, the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of mind, and the philosophy of language. (Wikipedia)

"One of the main ideas that Wittgenstein discusses in his book Philosophical Investigations is that of “meaning as use.” Wittgenstein argues that the meaning of a word isn't some kind of separate “thing” that exists all on its own. Instead, it's something that arises from how we use it in language." (www.thecollector.com)

In honor of Memorial Day, we found a list of 13 movies to watch tonight that tell stories of American soldiers in war.

The top three are:
1. Apocalypse Now
2. The Best Years of Our Lives
3. Black Hawk Down

You can find more details here on The Academy's website at https://aframe.oscars.org/what-to-watch/post/memorial-day-movies-to-watch

If you are learning English, take this as an opportunity to learn some U.S. History and practice your listening skills by turning off the subtitles or practice both listening and reading by turning on English subtitles.

Happy Memorial Day! We hope you enjoy this long weekend with family and friends.
