These are example talks for Izabelle Grenon
Ever wondered what it is like to be in a relationship with someone from another culture? Maybe you are thinking that cultural differences would be too hard?
Yes, cultural differences can be unsettling and require a very open mind and an ability to adapt, but they don’t make people divorce. Marriages are done and undone by people, whether they are from the same or different cultural background.
In this presentation we will demystify the myths about the dynamic of the international relationship, and learn the real difficulties related to cultural differences--some of which may surprise you--and what you can do about it. This talk provides the knowledge and awareness to empower people to thrive in their international marriage… or decide when to quit.
This super fun and entertaining presentation about human language and its diversity is meant for young children aged 9 to 15, but can be easily adapted for a more mature audience. It is an original way to introduce the concept of biodiversity, for instance, or introduce the study of language as a science, and it is the perfect introduction to multiculturalism!
In this interactive and engaging presentation, the young learners are introduced to the fascinating world of human languages while discussing the biodiversity of the world. The presentation fosters critical thinking and collaboration skills through activities that can be done in small teams.
We investigate intriguing facts about languages, like how many languages are spoken in the world today, how many languages have a writing system, how many languages are endangered and why are they endangered. We also look at language families to illustrate the relation between familiar languages, and discuss how human language differs from other animals' communication systems… or does it?
This presentation uses PowerPoint slides with lots of visual aids with funny and cute examples and is suitable for children who are not native English speakers (but can read English to some degree).
