Aixa Pérez-Prado is a storyteller, artist, and university professor who loves wandering through cities and countries all over the world with her boots on. She started her strolling in Buenos Aires, then shuffled off to Buffalo, coasted across California, roamed around Costa Rica, moseyed through Morocco, and left footprints on the beaches of Brazil. Nowadays, when she's not meandering Miami with her husband Roberto, she enjoys reading, writing, drawing, hanging out with her six well-heeled children, and taking long walks with her four-pawed fuzzball, Hagrid. She teaches cross-cultural communication, diversity studies and critical and creative thinking skills to homeschoolers, language learners, and university students learning to become teachers. Also check out her books in the Institute store: Habits of Mind for Homeschooling: A Guide for Parents and Teachers and LAF with the Habits of Mind: Strategies and Activities for Teaching Diverse Language Learners.
