A fantastic new resource added for my younger language students!

AuthorStu Blair

The ambience of the classroom has an extremely important impact on language learners, and this is especially true for students in the Early Years Learning Framework.

Bold, bright, and vibrant images related to the language and its culture provide a narrative that can be used to present the language to the students on a daily basis.


I am delighted to add this beautiful mural of the Eiffel Tower in all its splendour to my classroom for students to enjoy.

I greatly appreciate my centre director for permitting me to indulge and have the mural created!

A fantastic presentation!

AuthorStu Blair

Presenter at Nexus Pop Culture Convention, August 8-9, 2020

I had an absolute hoot as a presenter at Australia's first online pop culture convention on August 8 and 9!

During the event, I presented my thesis investigations of the creator of the Tintin character, specifically the controversy surrounding his employment as an illustrator during the Second World War.

I received a second booking to conduct a public lecture about languages created for the entertainment industry that included an interactive Klingon language workshop.
