Buenos-Dias! The best time to learn a foreign language is in youth. We are excited to be able to bring a foreign language class to The Country Schoolhouse with Mr. Adolfo Pardo.

This beginner level Spanish course will teach students the Spanish alphabet sounds and words by utilizing song, with Mr. Adolfo on the piano, as well as with games and recitation.
