Learner progress will be assessed weekly during each lesson as the teacher sees and hears that the student has become independent in reciting the information learned during the learning routine. Students will be able to ask and answer questions in the target language. 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

In this class, you will learn important concepts such as the days of the week, months of the year, how to read and write the date, numbers, colors, shapes, counting, number order, letter names and sounds, rhyming and word reading and recognition. You will have daily practice to improve your skills in this new language which includes conversation. During the course, the teacher will be using slides to ensure that students can clearly see the information. The teacher will also be using their hands, facial expressions, voice intonation, and body movements to both engage and help students learn and understand what is being taught. Moreover, we will use chanting, rhyming, singing, and a lot of call and response activities to make learning fun and interactive. You will constantly interact with your classmates and teacher throughout the lesson. 📅 Are you looking for a class that meets 1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x per week?

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.
