Are you looking for a class to help your little one build and strengthen their communication skills? Teaching young children how to converse is a skill that will help them in the years to come and that's why I created this class.

Having taught for 17 years in the classroom as well as three and a half years on Outschool, I am excited to work with your learner on how to engage with others in a fun and positive way. 

As a mom of 4 young children, I know how important it is to develop these oral language skills.  Learning how to take turns speaking, practice active listening, make eye contact and speak up are important for little learners. 

Whether you have a child that loves to talk or one that may need a boost of encouragement, this class is designed to help your child have fun conversing and engage through show and tell. Given my passion and expertise in reading and writing, I have designed the course to incorporate a variety of activities that will promote a multitude of skills.

Each week, we'll begin with a song or rhyme to welcome all of our learners. Having worked with early learners for many years, they love to engage in songs and rhymes!  We will then have a weekly topic that serves as the basis for our conversation. Often times learners will be invited to bring along an object to share (see schedule) to help promote our sharing and listening skills. 

Being an ongoing class, you can join anytime as content does not build. Each week is sure to be a way to help your child love to interact and share with others!
