As the only school on the North Shore currently offering language immersion in our preschool and kindergarten classrooms as well as weekly lessons in Spanish and Chinese to children from PK – Grade 8, Harborlight Montessori has created a language experience that allows our students to learn systematically and organically. Our World Language faculty members are all native speakers, which helps to create a genuine, meaningful, and effective curriculum.
Please join us as Harborlight’s Director of World Language, Sandra Lee, shares her vast knowledge and expertise concerning the most effective way to help young children learn a foreign language. She will share why exposure to a second language should begin at an early age, how second language acquisition is approached at Harborlight, useful online tools to promote further language acquisition at home, and discuss some common misconceptions about second language learning.
Sandra Lee is the Director of World Languages at Harborlight Montessori in Beverly, as well as a Teacher in the Children’s House Program. She has authored both articles and books on the subject of second language learning in young children.
Watch these two short videos of our young students using both Chinese and Spanish as a part of their language immersion and/or language lessons.
Good Morning Gloucester 
Wow that is neat I can speak a few languages self taught by listening to what was said and asking what meaning was not fluent but dangerous in many vocal at least not written! Come a long ways in this area from when I was coming up the hill climb! This way all kinds of languages are spoken!! 🙂 Dave & Kim 🙂
Thanks Nicole!
