Haitian Cuisine

Taught by Wynnie L

Wynnie learned English as a second language and speaks English with a generic American English accent. She self indentifies as a language junkie and has fed her addiction to language with a degree in Linguistics and Spanish. As a Haitian living in the United States she enjoys doing things that demonstrate her bi-cultural nature -- from cooking traditional Haitian food like akra and banan pize to enjoying a ballgame at Yankee stadium. 

Wynnie currently teaches all levels of math at Hostos Community College while craftfully dodging marriage and baby questions from her 84 year old grandmother.
