Foreign Teachers Aid AHS Language Classes School year 1972-'73 marked the second year of the Amity Aide pro- gram at AHS. College graduates and students traveled from foreign coun- tries to help teach their native lan- guages and cultures. Residents of the district had the opportunity to share their homes with the aides. French students were aided by Magdeleine Mesure, a native of Mar- seille, France. She lived with Mr. and Mrs. Joseph C. Wilson, of Cedar, Minnesota for the first semester, and with Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Norbie of Anoka for the second semester. 'il-Xmerican customs, said Magde- Zeine, 'fare not that different from French, except the way people eat and the times. The family I lived with had three children and they were a family within themselves, they didnlt go out. I'm sure itis dif- ferent for every family. Visiting Anoka from Germany was Rudolf Portmann. During the fall and winter he lived with Mr. and Mrs. William Merritt, and for the last half of the year with Mr. and Mrs. Joseph J. Zimmerman. You wonft find this type of school in Ger- many , , . the facilities here are enor- mous. Relations between student and teacher are much closer here. I appreciate it more because students have more trust in the teachers. And this results in better teaching and learning, stated Rudolf. Mrs. Joyce deAcevedo Phannsch- midt provided a home for the Colom- bian Amity Aide, Clara Ines Rincon. In the spring months, Clara lived with Mr. and Mrs. Fay Barnes of Anoka. Having an Amity Aide in class makes you realize the small things that make up the culture of other people. - Linda Packer Clara is helpful in class because she adds the something that is included in a foreign accent. - Maureen McCoy
