Losing My Voice And Finding Another

Synopsis

Losing My Voice and Finding Another is a language learner narrative, based on the author's experiences from 2003 to 2010, when he emigrated from the United States to Germany at the age of 53 and began to learn German. The book is written for adults, especially immigrants, who find it difficult to learn a second language; language teachers who want to learn about emotional and social aspects of second language learning; and citizens and policy makers who want to understand why some adult immigrants are not successful at learning a new language. Foreword by Dr. Rebecca Oxford.
