Learning a second (or third!) language early is a great idea! The Y generally offers German and Spanish, with an additional preschool class. Take a beginner course with an emphasis on spoken and written German. The curriculum engages various learners (oral, visual, and physical). This excellent beginner course teaches vocabulary and sentence structure to communicate in everyday German in a liberal arts learning environment. Private lessons are 30 minutes, one time per week, for the duration of the session. Learn Spanish through fun games, activities, and songs with a native Spanish-speaking instructor. Meet new friends and learn about a different culture and way of life. Spanish is not offered this fall, but contact the Arts and Education office for upcoming offerings. Please get in touch with the Arts & Education office at 513-932-1424 ext 226 to schedule. Need help with an ongoing sewing project?
