The villages simulate a visit to countries where these languages are spoken. Participants are issued passports, exchange their American currency and adopt ethnic names.

In one-, two- or four-week sessions they learn the language and experience the culture through conversation groups; celebrations of holidays and historical events; songs, dances, crafts and games; and through ethnic foods and mealtime conversation.

Felker is the son of Dr. and Mrs. Russ Felker of Cape Girardeau.
