Teaching wine with spirit
|
|
Imagine a school where you can sip a glass of
wine during class while watching TV shows and movies. If you are one
of Ines Cabarrus’ students taking her Beverage Management and Wine
Appreciation class at the Enderun College of Hotel and Restaurant
Management, you just might find yourself in such a learning
environment.
“The subject I teach covers a wide range of
topics related to wine and all other kinds of beverages. I have to,
for example, discuss the production process like how beer is
fermented and wine is made. It’s almost like chemistry and can get
pretty boring. So I try to make it as fun and as educational as I
can by making it very visual. I had my students watch The Simpsons
and cited Moe as an example of bad bar tending. I teach this way
because I learn best this way,” explains Ines.
