Join us as we speak with Jiazan Chanthavongsy and Zoie Taylor about French Immersion, the mentality of Louisianans towards language, and the advantages of speaking two languages in the state. 

Zoie Taylor is the fonder and owner of Bronzage, a local salon in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana. She received her masters in Francophone Studies from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette and she was a French immersion teacher for several years. You can find her in the film "Le Choix de Théo," by the directors Mikael Espinasse and Thomas Chauvin. It is also available on Télé-Louisiane. Jizan Chanthavongsy is the son of Zoie Taylor and is currently a student in French Immersion.
