Each class is organized around fun theme-based units that combine singing, movement, interactive exercises and arts & crafts. Our Parlo Italiano classes for older children, emphasize communication and vocabulary building as well as pronunciation and basic grammar skills.
The format of our kids classes combined with the passion and drive of our native-speaking teachers encourages a love for Italian from a young age! Studies have shown that learning a foreign language enriches a child's cognitive development which can enhance a child’s overall school performance.
