On what would have been his birthday, we honour Mario — a visionary who transformed language teaching into a human, creative, and deeply connected practice that continues to inspire educators worldwide.

How can you join?

On June 9th, we invite you to:

Teach a lesson inspired by Mario: Use one of his activities, ideas, or exercises. You’ll find many on hlt.digital

Share a moment from your classroom on Mario´s fan page on FB – a quote, a student’s reaction, a photo (with permission), or even a short reflection: https://www.facebook.com/mariorinvolucri.space–

Post a memory or thought about how Mario influenced your teaching — whether you met him, learned from his books, or were inspired by his ideas: https://www.facebook.com/mariorinvolucri.space

What to Teach? Mario’s publications are a goldmine of creativity. Whether it’s a storytelling activity, a moment of silent reflection, a grammar game that taps into emotion, or simply asking students “How are you really today?” — you’re already honouring his legacy.You can find a selection of his books and ideas here: hlt.digital/profiles/mario-rinvolucri/books

Let’s celebrate Mario together – by teaching with heart, creativity and humanity.
