	Description:		As this is the very first Language Fuel Podcast episode, I'm simply introducing Language Fuel, explaining what it's about, and providing an introduction to myself (host), Joanna Smith. Why am I so passionate about supporting the teaching and learning of languages? In this episode, you'll hear about my own early experiences with learning languages. Some memories of language classes have nothing to do with learning the target language, but some great teaching principles were followed, such as psychological safety, and self-learning and memorisation. You'll also hear about later language learning experiences, such as visiting countries in which the languages were spoken. I even got to know my future husband on one of those trips! You'll hear how living in multilingual Switzerland blew my mind, and influenced me to change career path to become a linguist. I hope there are some stories in there that resonate with you. Enjoy! I'd love to hear your feedback. Head on over to www.languagefuel.com and connect with us there.
