What motivated you to really learn Creole?
A desire to better connect with Creole speakers in my research on Creole-language textbooks in education.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to learn Haitian Creole?
It’s wonderfully rewarding, especially when you are able to communicate with a Creole-speaker; choose this program and take your time with listening practice.
What’s been the biggest benefit for you personally since learning to communicate in Creole?
Firstly, better understanding the material being taught in the textbooks I’m studying; secondly, speaking in Creole as opposed to French creates a personal connection when conducting interviews — even if I have a lot to learn!
