“Where Are Your Keys?” Comes to Seattle…
Do you like learning languages? Maybe you’ve always wanted to learn a language? Maybe you’d like to get better at teaching languages? Maybe you don’t care about languages but you’re a trainer or teacher or a student?
If any of these are true for you and could be in Seattle on Sep 4th & 5th, then read on…
Where Are Your Keys, Seattle?
Where Are Your Keys? (WAYK) is an amazing community language learning game which is great not only for learning and teaching language, but also for learning techniques that are good for learning / teaching, period.
Karissa and I went to a weekend workshop in Portland early this year and we were both blown away by it. We’ve gotten the creators to come up to Seattle to do a workshop here, at our house, on Sep 4th & 5th, and I want to invite you.
It’s $125 for 2 intense days with a light breakfast & lunch provided on each day. But trust me, at the end of 2 days, you will be a badass
. And you’ll have the skills to learn the basics of any language. From anyone.
We have till the end of the weekend to get enough interest to make the workshop happen, so if you’re interested, PLEASE
Applying WAYK…
Karissa & I have applied techniques from “Where Are Your Keys?” to both our dance teaching and my consulting, and would love to have a larger community to help us discover other ways to apply it to teaching & learning. We’re planning on starting a local monthly game, and we’re hoping to use this workshop to kickstart the Seattle WAYK community.
For my part, WAYK has changed the way I organize classes. Techniques like “Start Over”, “Setup”, “Full”, “Limit”, “We all get there together”, are just some of the techniques that are now part of virtually all my classes.
If you teach people anything, I recommend you check it out.
Like I said, we still need to get a few more people registered so that this workshop happens, so please forward this to anyone you think might be interested!
