Learn English Through Fairy Tales Beauty & the Beast Level 3

Being brought up in a multi-lingual household, David Burke used his language skills as a tour guide at Universal Studios in Hollywood, California, giving tours in English, French, Italian, and sign language. His love of language inspired him to delve into the intricacies of words and led him to become a prominent author of more than 60 books on understanding slang and idioms in different languages, as well as books that teach kids foreign languages through fairy tales. His materials on slang and idioms are currently used as course curriculum by Berlitz International, UCLA, Harvard University, NYU and Hewlett Packard, and even by the writers of The Simpsons to give Bart his coolness. Having been trained since the age of four as a classical pianist (along with the cello, recorder, classical guitar, harp, organ, and harpsichord), his prior career was as a composer for a variety of television shows produced by Grant Tinker. David was then asked to join the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee as their in-house composer for all their documentaries, commercials, and public service announcements during which he worked with Phyllis Diller, Bob Hope, and Lou Rawls. In 1986, David founded Slangman, Inc. (including Slangman Publishing and Slangman Kids), a publishing company specializing in materials that teach children foreign languages, as well as products teaching teens and adults slang and idioms in a variety of languages. In 1999, David became known as Slangman” to 90 million listeners in 120 countries due to his regular 5-year segment on Voice of America’s Coast to Coast.” David has appeared on more than 250 national and international radio and television programs helping parents to understand their teens. David was also a commentator during several Academy Awards broadcasts for the BBC’s Five Live (a program broadcasting to 7 million people throughout the United Kingdom) to speak about slang used in American movies and TV shows.
