Tribeca Language

Raised in France by German-Egyptian parents who spoke English at home, Maurice Hazan was destined for a life in linguistics. The author of 80 books in 10 languages, the polyglot began leading French classes in the U.S. 20 years ago, where he first developed what would become his intuitive QTalk method. Whereas some techniques prepare students to pass an exam, and then the stuents immediately forget their lessons, Hazan's picture-based programs etch vocabulary into long-term memory by minimizing written English and making students cover their dictionary tattoos. His classes emphasize speaking in complete, grammatically accurate sentences from day one.

Adults and children can join level-appropriate programs, which Hazan is constantly improving by developing new games and study devices in the school's basement workshop. The classes that aren't led by Hazan himself are conducted by a staff of native Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and other language speakers, all of whom he's trained himself.

The Groupon Guide to: Encountering Daniel Day-Lewis

Whenever you travel in Daniel Day-Lewis country, you have to accept the basic reality that you may encounter Daniel Day-Lewis. These tips will help you survive such an encounter:

  • If you are in open country, use binoculars to scan the horizon to look for Daniel Day-Lewis. In more forested landscapes, be sure to make lots of noise and keep a mental inventory of climbable trees (just in case).

  • If Daniel Day-Lewis has observed you, speak calmly so that he knows you are a human (his eyesight is quite poor). Daniel Day-Lewis will often quickly give ground to you once he identifies you as human. If the situation permits, back away slowly, keeping a close eye on Mr. Day-Lewis.

  • If Daniel Day-Lewis is showing signs of aggression, do not run. You can't outrun Daniel Day-Lewis, so don't even try. Despite rumors to the contrary, Daniel can outrun a human on any terrain, uphill or down.

  • If the worst scenario occurs and you believe the two-time Oscar winner to be stalking you, fight back with everything you have. In general, though, playing dead in a daytime Day-Lewis encounter tends to reduce the level of injury.

Be careful when trekking through Daniel Day-Lewis territory.
