For many years, we received repeated requests from students to offer programs for children. We have answered that need by offering less-intensive programs for children from age 5 to 15. We have found qualified teachers with years of experience in teaching children and built up a collection of teaching materials expecially for youngsters. Depending on the age of the students, classes are a combination of educational field trips and classroom instruction using many visual and manual aids. We can say that teaching children in this way has been a succesful and enjoyable experience for all of us.
Age is a determining factor when making groups.
The difference between a child of 8 and one of 13 when it comes to teaching is significant, whereas a five year age difference between adults is practically non-existent. Therefore, we don't think it's wise to have two children with age differences of more than a few years in the same class. We also have experience in arranging nannies. In some cases the nanny may be a member of the host family. Our nannies generally speak only Spanish.
