AFNO Louisiana Créole instructor, Lawson Ota will be in attendance to help you with any language questions you may have!

About Louisiana Créole: The Louisiana Creole language is perhaps unique among Louisiana's heritage languages in the extent to which its use historically transcended barriers of race and socio-economic status. At its height, Louisiana Creole was spoken throughout South Louisiana by members of the most elite families and members of the most marginalized communities. The features of Louisiana Creole, perhaps more so than those of any other language, speak to the unique history and culture of Louisiana.

About Lawson Ota: Lawson Ota is the founder of Tours by Marguerite, a tourism company offering tours in French and English of historic places in New Orleans. He is also a teacher of French as a foreign language. He is trained in linguistics having graduated in 2012 in French, linguistics and German. He has devoted his career to the defence of the heritage languages ​​of Louisiana (that is, Louisiana French and Louisiana Creole).
