Learner progress will be assessed daily during each lesson as the teacher sees and hears that the student has become independent in reciting the information learned during lessons and routines. Students will be able to ask and answer questions on their own. Students will have individual turns to demonstrate progress and understanding. Parents can also assess their own child's progress as they become more independent during their participation in class as well as how they are using learned information outside of class.Class Experience

▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⭐Course Overview⭐ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ Welcome to our unique path to kindergarten preparation! In this course, we will not only gain essential skills necessary for kindergarten but also explore new languages and cultures as we journey through the seven continents of the world. Each week will have a different focus or theme of a specific continent. Our classroom routine will begin with a "music and movement" song, followed by learning and singing a "hello" greeting song, where we will explore various greetings from around the world. We will also have calendar time, talk about the weather, and learn new vocabulary words for letters of the week. Our weekly curriculum will cover concepts such as days of the week, months of the year, numbers, colors, shapes, counting, number order, letter names, letter sounds, rhyming, sight words, and practicing sounding out, reading, and writing words. To ensure that students can clearly see the information, the teacher will use slides and incorporate different teaching methods such as chanting, rhyming, singing, and call-and-response techniques. Students will have ample opportunities to interact with their classmates and teacher throughout the lessons. 📅 Are you looking for a class that meets 1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x per week? Send us a message about a class frequency change. 💬 We can also accommodate learners and families wanting full immersion vs. bilingual classes.

Doris Sandra Avoum:
Bonjour!
I’m Doris and teaching languages is my passion and my full time job. I’m from Cameroun and I live in USA. I love speaking French. I have studied French for about 18 years and I have been teaching it for 3 years. I have a Master degree in Medical Anthropology from the University of Yaoundé 1.
In my experience as a teacher, I’ve met people with multiple learning goals, so I can say I’m a flexible patient teacher and I’m able to adapt a lesson to different ways of learning and needs. I love interacting with students and being part of their learning process.
During my lessons, I prefer to use a communicative approach whether to study vocabulary, pronunciation or active grammar. That is, in other words, I focus on the use of the language and try to create a 100% French speaking environment progressively.
Regarding grammar teaching, I use both an inductive and deductive approach. For instance, you can discover the rules through different activities that require your engagement and interaction or I can explain to you any aspect of grammar by giving you the rules and practicing with examples and exercises. Sometimes we can do one of these ways or both in the same lesson, taking into account your learning style.

My name is Hemmilly and I teach Portuguese, Spanish and French. I love to introduce kids to a new language and see their excitement as they learn to express themselves in a new way. Learning a new language is fun!Reviews
