Comments from Class Participants
This class makes sense to me. I get it! I love the hands-on textbook. Now I know I can learn a foreign language. How exciting!
Where has this program been? We have needed it for years!
Irvin made learning easy and fun. Just what we needed!
I am looking forward to using this in my class. Thank you so much. The workshop provided some great ideas for my class.
I so enjoyed the Spanish class. I took this new teaching position in the area and have been very worried about having no Spanish skills and working with such a large number of Hispanic children. I feel much better going into this new school year after taking this class.
