Learner progress will be assessed daily during each lesson as the teacher sees and hears that they are becoming independent when reciting learned information and engaging in conversation by asking and answering questions in the target language. Every 5th lesson includes activities that review and check for understanding and provoke learners to recall information learned throughout the week. 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
