Classes for Native and Heritage Speakers
In addition to offering classes for new language learners, the Beauvoir Language programs offers a series of enrichment-style classes geared toward near-native and heritage speakers of Spanish. Beauvoir Language enrichment classes are offered in the fall, winter and spring. Each enrichment provides a different artistic and creative opportunity for children to craft while being instructed solely in the target language once a week.
