Arqnarulunnguaq Audlaluk

Arnarulunnguaq is a teacher in tiny multigrade school, grades k-3, I am very proud of how she speaks Inuktitut and never forgets to talk in Inuktitut. She has taught my 7 year old daughter that speaking Inuktitut is nothing to be shy of and Arna is proud of all her students for speaking our language.

She was born in Iqaluit and raised in Grise Fiord, she is proud to be raised with an Inuktut speaking household, in which she can both understand dialects. Her mom is originally from Cape Dorset and her father from Northern Quebec, Inukjuak. She is fond of different dialects as she met and made friends from all over Nunavut. She continues to speak Inuktitut and proudly, she thinks continuing to speak our language will keep it alive. She is proud of her students and grateful for the elders in her community for passing on their knowledge. She continues to strive to be as great as the ones who taught her language.
