French with Véronique

Yes, learning French can be fun!  This is an opportunity for children from 1 to 5 years old to learn the basics of the French language while participating in games, dancing and singing.  Simple vocabulary will be taught and pronunciation will be introduced in this interactive class.  Kids will be encouraged to participate!

My name is Véronique Carney, I am a native French speaker, and I have been teaching French either in groups or individually for more than 5 years.  I also teach adults but I especially enjoy sharing French with little ones.  And it is so much easier to learn a language when you are young!

Six week session: Wednesdays from 10-10:40am starting on June 1st 2011 (for kids 1 to 5 years old), $9 per class ($54 total).  Enjoy the museum after class at the discounted rate of $5.00 on that day (just mention you are taking the French class at check-in).

To register for class or if you have any questions, contact Véronique at (303) 661-9511 or veroniquecarney@yahoo.com.
