My Students

My classroom is full of energetic students that that have a thirst for learning. At their young age they have shown a passion and drive towards learning a new language. Focus and intention keeps them geared towards their goal: bilingualism!

My Project

Students best learn a language with exposure and practice. Thought the funding of this project, you will help my class focus on the target language without the external distractions that might impede their language development.

Thought the funding of this project, my students will be immersed in language and learning by listening and speaking: practicing their auditory comprehension and perfecting their spoken fluency.

Fortunately, they have the opportunity to be exposed to an array of technological resources (language sites, programs, and apps) but they need headphones to make the experience a fruitful and developmental.
