During this series of fun and interactive lessons, children will learn sounds of the French language through songs, drawing, games and conversations. Each week learners will practice reading, writing, speaking, and spelling in French. We will go slowly and make sure each concept is grasped. The small class size of each session ensures individual attention for each learner. Mme. Colleen loves to incorporate songs and humor into her classes to help her learners remember and use what they learn. New phonics concepts will be presented at the beginning of each class following a brief review of the previous lesson. Learners will have an opportunity to use new sounds and words as we play games, read, and have conversations during the rest of the class time. Students will choose several new words to put together in silly sentences and will illustrate them. Please have paper and pencils each week. Printed materials and/or online games will be provided each week to help reinforce what is learned in class. This is not a French Immersion class. Instruction is given in English , but learners are encouraged to speak French as much as they can.

Hi, I'm Ms. Colleen.
I'm an Early Childhood Educator and home educating parent. I have my degree in Child Study from Mount Saint Vincent University and I have been teaching for 28 years. I am also a certified EFL (English as a Foreign Language) instructor. I speak both English and French. In 2020 I discovered my love of teaching online. I guess every cloud really does have a silver lining! My family and I live in beautiful Atlantic Canada. I'm excited to share fun and interactive learning activities with your children! Teaching is truly my passion and that shines through in my lessons. My teaching style is calm, patient, and warm. I believe that childhood is a journey, not a race. I love to learn new things and I try to instill a love of learning through my lessons. I love to laugh. I like to incorporate singing into my lessons because I believe it helps learners relax and absorb information, especially when learning a new language. I hope to see you soon in one of my classes!
