In ECFE we know that parents are the first and most important teachers in the life of a child . These multi-age classes are for families wanting to practice English . You and your children attend together to improve your English language skills through conversation , learning activities , and more . Each class meets two days per week — choose Mondays and Wednesdays or Tuesdays and Thursdays . The curriculum is the same for both classes .

The first day of class , parents and their children stay together for an hour and a half , participating in a variety of activities that contribute to the development of your child ' s abilities and skills . Later we separate for an hour and the parents attend a class with a licensed parent educator where you ' ll be able to share your experiences and strengthen your knowledge about your child ' s development .
