The International School of Languages currently offers Spanish and French programs for Schools and Preschools in Maryland, DC and Virginia.
Small classes and proven curriculum
Children learn a foreign language, the culture and traditions of the particular countries where that language is spoken. Our instruction varies depending on the children’s ages and levels and includes games, songs, poems, crafts and other hands-on activities that will help to solidify their learning. Class sizes are small and taught by native speakers who are, not only experienced teachers of the language and culture, but also engaging, fun and motivating. During our classes, instructors use every moment as an opportunity to motivate students to use and practice their speaking skills.
Our program is divided into themes. The program duration is 10 weeks (can be changed in agreement). During each program we introduce two themes and a series of games and activities that develop the skills needed to learn a second language in a consistent and sequential manner. The themes introduced
depend on the level of the students and the programs they have taken with the International School of Languages.
Beginner 1: Animals, Food,
Beginner 2: House, Verbs
Beginner 3: Body, Clothes
Beginner 4: Places, Shapes/Opposites
Intermediate 1: Family, School
Intermediate 2: Nature, Transportation
Intermediate 3: Professions, Hobbies
Every time a new theme is introduced, a Parent Guide will be sent home with every child (via backpack or email). This Parent Guide includes vocabulary, grammar and ideas to use at home with your child in order to solidify what they are learning in class.
Each 60-minute class is divided into eight categories that make the class fast-moving and fun for the students while addressing the students’ diverse learning modalities through the following: Conversation, Music, Flashcards, Games, Video, Art, Storybooks, and Worksheets.Bring our Program to your center
Convenient and effective program for you and your child
Our program is a great solution for busy families. Your child can learn languages in a place that you already know, your child’s school or preschool, and with the convenience of not having to driver your child around during rush hour. Your child will have the opportunity to learn a new language or to build up with what she already knows.
Many parents are aware that, as globalization continues, learning another language has become essential. Not only it gives children the opportunity to enrich their lives, but it has also been proven that it is beneficial for the brain, helping children solve problems faster. As children become adults, being bilingual also expands the range of professional opportunities and gives them the opportunity to act as citizens of the world.
Language and fun come together right at your school or preschool.
With ISL as your partner, we will deliver a fun, high-quality academic and productive program that will guarantee that students will build and develop their foreign language skills. Because we are also educators, we understand the commitment you have with both students and parents, and as your partner we also extend the same commitment to you and to them by providing a safe and nurturing environment where student can learn.
Our program is a perfect extension of your school day. We can work with you by adding our program seamlessly to be part of your school or preschool curriculum, or by offering before or after your school day. You may also opt to offer this program free of charge to parents as an included extra-incentive, or on an enrollment basis.
