Episode 42 - In this episode, Heather speaks with Tetsu Yung, a well-known polyglot and multilingual father in the bi/multilingual parenting community.  Tetsu himself grew up multilingual and is now raising his four children to speak five languages (Mandarin, Japanese, French, English and Spanish).  We first talk about his journey learning languages and all the places it took him before focusing on his family and multilingual parenting.  How does his family balance five languages?  One method they use for one language in particular is having an au pair.  Our discussion covers the joys, struggles, and complexities of multilingual parenting, and Tetsu gives us his best parenting tips.   
Make sure to check out Tetsu on all of his social media platforms.  In addition to his website and YouTube channel, he hosts a language conference in Montreal called LangFest and has collaborated with Richard Simcott who hosts the Polyglot Conference.  He also co-hosts Raising Multilinguals Live with Rita Rosenback and Ute Limacher-Riebold. These bi-weekly interviews with experts focus on specific topics or issues in multilingual parenting.  You can follow them on Facebook or YouTube.
