Baby steps


I'm about to start my journey learning Mauritian Creole! Eek!!! As a language student and having spent 2 years abroad teaching English as a foreign langauge I think I have a good background ready for learning my 4th language. 

I decided that the best way to learn this rare gem of a language would be to do it online, creating a blog of my progress and quite possible my struggles! I figure this will motivate me to keep going, even when I'm really busy I'll be able to log a bit of creole onto my Blog (although the thought of the battle with my iPhone's autocorrect trying to change every word I write in Creole fills me with dread), but also because previous searching online for any Creole learning material has failed miserably, Mauritian Creole isn't generally a language people would be taught so I'm going to have to be witty with this!

Yes, I know, my blog will only be a tiny drop in a seriously big ocean, but here's hoping that maybe at least one other person might find this useful!!

Ive always found that the best way to learn something is by teaching it, and I strongly believe this can help me learn Creole too; so here goes!! Allez!!!!

P.s. Happy advent!! :)
