This class is designed to teach students Hindi through conversation, rather than learning lists of vocabulary words with no idea of how to put them together in a sentence! Topics build on each other, so students get lots of exposure to previously learned grammar and vocabulary. 

In each class, we will learn the new vocabulary with a slide show and pictures, play games, and use repetition to learn sentence structures. Topics include, but are not limited to, parts of the body, characteristics of people, parts of the house, food, days of the week, sports, seasons, weather, etc. Students are welcome to request topics they would like to learn and talk about! I do use some English in my classes to build rapport with and among students and to ensure understanding.
