Class Experience

US Grade Preschool - 1
Beginner Level
In this ongoing self-paced preschool French class, your little language learner will listen to songs and make crafts while hearing and speaking French.
Ms. Colleen is a bilingual preschool teacher. She has a degree in Child and Youth Study and has been a licensed Early Childhood Educator for over 25 years. Her calm and patient manner helps young children feel comfortable and have fun learning. 
This class will be conducted in English and French, and is not an immersion class, but rather a gentle introduction to the French language for little ones.  Ms. Colleen speaks slowly and clearly and uses familiar stories and songs so that even children new to learning French will understand what happens in class. Each week a new theme will be explored using a story, songs and games, and a craft or sensory play. Children will need to have glue , crayons, safety scissors, a paint set and paper, and playdough available to them for each lesson. If additional supplies or worksheets are required, a message will be sent to parents before class. Parents are encouraged to be nearby in order to give help to their child during craft time.

Hi, I'm Ms. Colleen.
 I'm an Early Childhood Educator and home educating parent. I have my degree in Child Study from Mount Saint Vincent University and I have been teaching for 28 years.  I am also a certified EFL (English as a Foreign Language) instructor.  I speak both English and French. In 2020 I discovered my love of teaching online. I guess every cloud really does have a silver lining! My family and I live in beautiful Atlantic Canada.  I'm excited to share fun and interactive learning activities with your children! Teaching is truly my passion and that shines through in my lessons. My teaching style is calm, patient, and warm. I believe that childhood is a journey, not a race. I love to learn new things and I try to instill a love of learning through my lessons. I love to laugh. I like to incorporate singing into my lessons because I believe it helps learners relax and absorb information, especially when learning a new language.  I hope to see you soon in one of my classes!
