The power of music for early language acquisition

Music and spoken language are two sides of the same coin. Both are learned the same way, by instinct and by ear, and both appeal to young children by linking their senses with their curiosity. Having taught French to young children through my own songs for fifteen years, I am still marveling at how naturally, quickly and efficiently language is learned through music (and its close relatives: dance, mime, and visual images), and how these areas combine to create a world of discovery and wonder. This is exactly what my songs are about, and why they are so popular and infectious with the kids (and their parents!).

Foreign language acquisition has become a cornerstone of children's education in the Brooklyn community, resulting in a huge demand for creative, ever-evolving programs. Children change constantly, and require a pedagogical approach that adapts to their needs. From six months of age to six years of age, my program connects at the deepest level with a child's natural love of singing, dancing and playing, thereby making my students better talkers and listeners, smarter thinkers, and happier players and peers. There is power in notes, and learning French has never been this easy or fun!
