Background

Kershul attributes her lifelong passion for languages to her family. She grew up in a trilingual home where in addition to English, her father spoke Croatian and her mother spoke Danish. She spent ten years teaching at universities in Germany and the U.S. where she noticed students experiencing the same problems. They were self-conscious speaking and Kershul wanted to help them progress to the level where they were laughing and using the language comfortably. In 1981 she designed and wrote her first book, German in 10 Minutes a Day, which was the beginning of a series of language-learning books that launched Bilingual Books, Inc.
