Sybil Alexandrov is one of the most well-regarded language instructors at Yale. In this episode we talk about her experience teaching heritage speakers, a group that is vulnerable, diverse, and a "challenging opportunity" in the classroom. Among many other things, Sybil shares her strategies for making group projects work and tells us about the Heritage Meets Heritage project where heritage speakers of different languages learn from each other.
