Learn Anishinaabemowin with Indigenous Language Instructor, Corey Whitford

March 27, 2023

Did you know that exercise improves your ability to concentrate and retain information? Understanding to associate words with motion can help you remember new languages better than translating directly from the English words.

All students are invited to join Language Instructor Corey Whitford for Lunch & Learn sessions to learn Anishinaabemowin in motion!

Dance, sweat, speak! On Tuesday, April 4, at EDC in P107 from 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM, students can learn Anishinaabemowin verbs through Niimin (dance). They will also be learning how to salsa dance and will be able to build strong connections with other learners and have a safe space to practice the language and their dance steps!

  • Tuesday, April 4, 1:00 -2:00
  • P107 (EDC)
  • Email Terri-Lynn Anderson at tlanderson@rrc.ca to register.
