Lead by experienced native-speaking teacher, Andrea Enríquez, our "Amiguitos Bilingues: Vecinitos" program teaches Spanish by traveling through New York City to learn vocabulary about daily life in the city. Taught through original songs, games, and art activities co-developed by Meagan Van Ahn and Andrea Enriquez of El Taller Latino Americano, children will experience their daily lives, from riding the subway to ordering food, en español.
Each week, children will explore different themes that important to daily life in the city. By exploring our homes, neighborhoods and city, "Vecinitos" seeks to not only enhance the conversation ability of the students, but to also bring a sense of community and a better understanding of the diverse city that we call home.
General topics to be covered are listed below by week. Please note that although Session 1 and Session 2 will cover the same topic areas (e.g. transportation), they will not be the same lessons, therefore allowing for children to continue on to Session 2 after taking Session 1.
This class will be taught in a bilingual format and is open to children of all language levels ages 4-8.
Please pre-register as space is limited and spaces are filled on a first come, first serve basis.

El Taller has allowed me to actualize my
dream of starting a school for the arts for children. The
children as well as the teachers have all enjoyed many meorable
moments during our art and music classes and it's all thanks
to El Taller and the beautiful space and atmosphere that it
provides. It's a magical place of creativity and hope.

When our daughter needed to learn first year
high school Spanish in order to catch up with her classmates, El
Taller was there for her and allowed her to accellerate her
learning over the course of two summer months. What a wonderful
educational institution for our neighborhood!
