Research suggests that the younger children are introduced to a language, the more easily they can learn and the more likely they are to obtain fluency through their studies. Art, music, games, and skits guide our curriculum for each class. We utilize dynamic and creative ways to share our native language with the children and instill a love for language and learning. All grade levels are welcome to join now in our fun, new, virtual class
