One-thousand hours of intensive instruction, following second-language acquisition techniques and honouring our Indigenous contexts, brings a group of adults to mid-intermediate speech levels. As intermediate speakers, our role and responsibility will become clear: to create immersion workspheres, write advanced materials, teach, and raise children in the language. The author, a Syilx language activist and Syilx Nation member, creates an intensive adult immersion class in a house. The five women live together for six months to achieve mid intermediate fluency. They follow the Salish School of Spokane Curriculum and achieve measurable results. PhD Thesis.
