About the Author

Dustin De Felice wrote The Weekly Opposites during his time as an instructor in the Chicagoland area during the early part of this decade (2003-2004). Today, Dustin De Felice is a graduate student pursuing his Ph.D. in Second Language Acquisition and Instructional Technology (SLA/IT) at the University of South Florida. He is progressing through the doctoral experience while trying to assume his new role as a researcher. Dustin has more than a decade in the Adult Education field and has taught in Tampa, Florida, Chicago, Illinois and Cuernavaca, Mexico.

His current research interests include formal address systems in the Spanish language, language acquisition in polyglots, and endangered language documentation and pedagogy. His work with a native speaker of the Nahuatl language is available and he is always willing to share a copy of his multimedia CD entitled “Un pequeno vistazo del idioma Nahuatl,” where you are able to hear the language once used as the lingua franca throughout Mexico and still spoken today by roughly 1 million speakers.

He hopes you have enjoyed this workbook. Other workbooks will be forthcoming. If you are interested in more workbooks, feel free to contact Dustin at his personal email address: dustindefelice@yahoo.com
