LinguaKids, a Darien, Connecticut based company, offers French classes and Spanish classes for children starting at age 2.  Classes are available in the following towns in Fairfield County, Connecticut:  Darien, New Canaan, Westport, Ridgefield, Trumbull and Fairfield.

We are also pleased to announce our newest location in Bedford, New York!

LinguaKids uses a multi-sensory approach to teaching - simultaneously using the senses as we teach.  Songs with movement,  toys and manipulatives, arts and crafts, games, reading stories, conversations, and worksheets are all techniques that we use to teach children basic vocabulary words and phrases.

Most importantly, the children hear the language from a native speaker and repeat words and phrases as they should be spoken. 

We have classes to fit everyone's schedule:

Simply Conversation - A 30 minute class where conversation is king.  This class stresses sentence building and the development of a native accent while still having fun.  These classes can be combined with contiguous one-hour classes to create a hour and a half long class.  A 53% discount is given in this case.

Mommy / Daddy & Me (age 2) - A 45 minute class for children who aren't quite ready to be on their own.  They meet new friends and explore a foreign language with the comfort of a parent or caretaker.  Each class is full of music, arts, stories, games and toys, all designed to introduce basic vocabulary and to teach the children how to speak with a flawless accent.

Explorers (ages 3-5) - A 1 hour class for the newly independent.  These classes offer a nurturing environment where children lean through songs, stories, games and play.  They are encouraged to speak and repeat and for the accent that children imitate so well.

Voyagers (ages 5-7) - A 1 hour intellectual class for the often sports-packed schedules of today.  Expand their minds with fun songs, poems, crafts and games while building vocabulary and understanding.

Adventurers (ages 7+) - Our older kids thrive in these 1 hour classes where the pace is faster.  Learning is still fun with plenty of games.  They learn to converse with the instructor and each other too.  And, as readers, they are challenged on another level too - with worksheets and reading.

Most class sizes are limited to 6 children and the teacher speaks French or Spanish exclusively throughout the class.

Research show that children who are exposed to a foreign language after the age of 10 will most likely never speak it like a native. That’s why it is so important for children to be exposed to another language during their “critical period”.
