The unexpected benefits of learning as an adult
How often do you get out of your comfort zone each week? What about each month?
Maybe learning something new is a goal for you in 2024. You’re never too old to try, and there are so many benefits — some of them unexpected.
MPR News host Angela Davis talks about learning as an adult – whether it’s a language, a sport, an art or a skill. And having fun while we do it, because that’s important, too.
Her guests are experts in adult enrichment. They’ve seen the benefits of adult learning first-hand in Bemidji, Grand Marais and St. Paul.
Guests:
Katy Mommaerts is the community programs supervisor for St. Paul Community Education.
Jessa Frost is the program director for the North House Folk School in Grand Marais.
Mikaela Clyde is the adult enrichment facilitator for Bemidji Community Education.
