We have exciting news from Language Stars, one of our Barrington Online Marketplace members here at 365Barington.com! Now that our kids are back in school, it’s a great time to round out their schedules with an extra-curricular activity or two and Language Stars in Barrington is offering a brand new program aimed at successfully developing language skills to last a lifetime.
Language Stars’ new program is called Language Scholars and it’s designed for children between ages 3 and 8-years-old. The academic year starts September 3rd and includes 36 weeks of classes. Students enrolled in the program will receive six hours of language instruction per week and a 40% discount on their tuition.
Brittany Gignac is Language Stars’ Director here in Barrington.
She says their goal of the new Language Scholars program is to create more scheduling options with greater flexibility to fit families’ needs and offer more hours of student exposure to language for faster paced learning.
“The younger the kids are, the easier it is for them to learn language. Our Language Scholars program is designed to accelerate children’s language development by complimenting their existing school schedule with language.”
Language Stars families already enrolled are raving about the new Language Scholars curriculum……
