Required pre-requisite: Hindi for Tots! 1B-this is required in order to ensure learners will be comfortable in the class and are already familiar with our learned Hindi vowel and related vocabulary as well as other topics and class flow. If you have not taken 1A or 1B, you must contact the instructor prior to enrollment! In this class, young learners will continue to be gently introduced to Hindi through verbal interaction, song, finger play, pictures, and props. Learners will be encouraged to interact not only with the instructor but also their fellow classmates during class to not only practice Hindi but also socialization skills. Over the course of 12 weeks students will review topics from 1B as well as become more familiar with body parts, days of the week, weather through the varied play. Using show-and-tell learners will strengthen their speaking and expression abilities. We will also be reading a book together the Hindi Edition of "Chuglubugloo" by Alankrita Amaya which all learners are required to purchase as part of this class.

Other Details
Supply List
Vowel and Consonant Handouts will be provided, but must be printed out by parents prior to class. I advise parents to hole punch and to keep in a easy to use folder. Students will also need crayons in our learned colors (blue, green, red, yellow, orange, pink, purple, black, grey and brown-white is not required). It is REQUIRED to purchase the Hindi Edition of "Chuglubugloo" by Alankrita Amaya for this class. We will be reading the book in class and to keep in accordance with the usage agreement all students must own a copy. Please purchase your copy ASAP! I request parents to make the number 4 tracing tool found on this page: https://educationtothecore.com/2020/11/7-ways-to-write-without-a-pencil/?fbclid=IwAR1BZpS1euzd6AXXK2VUTTXGW-5WaQvOqwTBHxbaF2TG7q1khv76lnU_JVU This tool uses a bit of clear hair gel, sparkles, a ziplock bag and tape. It will help your child in practicing how to trace and write our vowels and consonants.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I began studying Hindi in 2007 with a private tutor and continued to study Hindi at Indiana University as part of my India Studies degree. I have spent approximately 10 months in India at various times and places living with locals and honing my language skills. I tutored Hindi in 2019 and have been teaching Hindi at the TN Language Center since January 2020. In addition, I am a Kathak dance student and have been learning Kathak at Upasana Performing Arts Center, Nashville, TN over the past 11 years. I have also been a part of my dance school’s South Asian community since I began dancing Kathak and therefore have been able to gain additional cultural and historical comprehension as regards both Hindi/Urdu and South Asia.
I have worked in Montessori classrooms as well as more traditional classrooms working with young children as well as teens. I bring my TEFL training as well as my experience teaching English as a foreign language to all my language classes. Additionally, having been a foreign language student myself I know the challenges that many learners face in acquiring a new language and seek to make new concepts-grammar, vocab, phonics-as accessible and as comprehensible as possible through various means-media, powerpoint, activities, drills-by whatever means possible! I love learning new things everyday and hope that my classes would pass along not only knowledge but the attitude that knowledge and learning are valuable and exciting!Reviews
