Parental Guidance
Our class meets (2) times a week, every week, including holidays, to ensure consistency and accountability. I respect and honor your family's observances as I have my own - please let me know if your child will miss a session and I will provide access to the class recording and any further support needed! This allows us to maintain our weekly rhythm.
==================================
I understand that some countries may have traditions that aren't always appropriate for younger children. Rest assured, that I (as being a parent myself) focus only on the wholesome and age-appropriate aspects of each culture in this class.
==================================
Your child will be immersed in Spanish language and culture, but please note, this is not a traditional Spanish curriculum-based class. It's a fun, engaging experience designed to spark curiosity and enhance language exposure!
==================================
There can be times when our class may run a few minutes over (5-7 minutes) to make sure everyone gets has the opportunity to share and connect. While I don’t plan for this, please just be mindful of this possibility when scheduling. Each child’s experience is my top priority!
