The  Unseen Impact of Culture on the ESOL Learner 

I don’t want anyone working with ESOL students to miss this valuable  
Internet-based seminar, part of the NAASLN 2009 Webinar Series. The  presenter, Robin 
Lovrien Schwarz’s presentations,  whether live or online, are always highly 
praised for format, content, depth of  knowledge and her practical, easy to 
implement solutions for helping ESOL  learners succeed.   

So please  review and then share, post on your listservs and plan to  attend!

Presenter: Robin Lovrien Schwarz 
Dates / Time: March 17, 4:00 – 5:00 ET 

Description: Culture plays a  large, and often unseen, role in how adult 
English language learners learn. In  this webinar, the impact of culture on

Find out how you can learn more about  your own cultural biases, as well as those 
of your learners. References for  reading and learning will be provided.

and writer in  the field of learning difficulties in adult ESOL learners for

Washington,  DC, where she resides.
