An after-school immersion class where kids build vocabulary and simple conversation through games, songs, and cooking projects led entirely in Spanish. Pairs easily with a straight-from-school pickup. Kids leave chatting in short Spanish sentences within a term.
For Brentwood Bilingual Kids
Best class we've tried on the Westside, hands down. She made a real conversation in French with her grandmother and she wouldn't stop talking about it. There's usually street parking a block over, which helps with our double stroller. Worth every credit.
This has become the highlight of his week, no contest. He made counting to ten in Mandarin and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Can't say enough good things about this place.
He lost interest after the novelty wore off, more a fit issue than anything else. He still managed to come away with a whole sentence in Spanish at dinner unprompted, but it took some effort from us to keep his engaged. Hoping it's just a rough patch because the concept is great.
We've been coming since over the summer and the difference in confidence is obvious. She made a few Mandarin characters he can write from memory and she wouldn't stop talking about it.
Laoshi Wei is nice but the class has felt a little disorganized the last couple sessions. He did work on a few Mandarin characters he can write from memory, so it's not all bad. We'll probably stick with it for now but keeping an eye on it.
