FORMAT: 
- This is NOT a full immersion course. 
- The first class of each week will be an introduction to the subject and we will practice the vocabulary and phrases again during the second class of the week.
- We will use rhythm, movement, and various other mnemonic devices to retain the information.
- We will occasionally use Kahoot and Quizlet quizzes during class. Students who would like to use a second device should have one on hand. 
- Please see the Learning Goals section for details on what will be taught each week. 

HOMEWORK: 
- Homework will be assigned on the first day of class due for the second day but not over the weekend as students may unsubscribe at any time. 
 
SUPPLEMENTS:
- Students are encouraged to attend either a conversation or composition class in conjunction with this one. 

CLASS BEHAVIOR & ADMINISTRATIVE INFO: 
Please make note of the following:
1) VIDEO REQUIRED for the duration of the class.  Students will interact with me and their peers using the microphone and video camera on their device. In order to ensure the safety of all students, please ensure that your learner is able to turn on their video so that I may verify their identity. I also ask that cameras stay on unless your student needs to step away. 
2) Please have your learner(s) familiarize themselves with the Outschool features such as mute and raising their hand. Students are expected to be respectful to all during class.
3) Please enroll all siblings for their own spot in the class, as appropriate. Per Outschool policy, parents and other siblings may NOT be on camera with the student.
4) Classes with less than 3 students will be either canceled and refunded or rescheduled. 
5) Absences: For planned absences, parents may leave their child enrolled to ensure their spot and review the recording or may unsubscribe from the class for that week to avoid being charged. Make up sessions are not available. Unplanned absences are not refunded.

    ABOUT ME: 
    
    Bonjour! Xin chào mấy bạn!
    
    Thanks for stopping by! I’m a native French and Vietnamese speaker, a culinary school graduate, and a worldschooling parent. My father is French from Bretagne, my mother is Vietnamese from Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City), and while I was born in the U.S., Vietnamese was my first language. I spent nearly every summer in Paris or Saigon and even lived in Paris for a few years while attending school.
    
    While language learning—especially beyond the beginner level—requires effort, it doesn’t have to be boring. I strive to make language and culture engaging for my students, instilling a love of learning along the way.
    
    I hope you’ll join me on this language adventure!
    
    À bientôt! Hẹn gặp lại!
