Lunch & Learn with SIS
The Power of Bilingualism
What makes bilingualism such a powerful tool not only in education but in our everyday life? Join us for a session that explores the science of bilingualism and how bilingual experiences shape the way we think, feel and connect.
From the first day of school to real-world examples, this event highlights why bilingualism matters – and how it empowers us all.
The presenters will cover:
• What does science say?
• Language, Empathy and Emotions
• Real World Examples
• The Power of Bilingualism in Life
Presenters
Lisa Cummins, Head of Pedagogy and School Organization at SIS Schweiz AG
Andrea Spielmann, Head of School at SIS Basel-Allschwil
This event is open to everyone interested in bilingualism and keen to meet others who share a passion for languages.
Following the presentation there will be a networking opportunity with a sandwich lunch offered by SIS.
