Marathi class for kids - Every Sunday

We are glad to announce Marathi class for kids in the age group of 4 to 8. We would use fresh and novel techniques to teach the language. The emphasis will be on developing kid’s interest in Marathi. There would no pressure to learn Mulakshare or Barakhadi initially. Instead importance will be given to developing vocabulary through Badbadgeete, Balgeete, pictures, play etc.
 

Class would be run by Mangala and Jyoti Joglekar.

Jyoti has a Master’s degree in Sociology and is a Director of YMCA child care center. She has been working with kids for over 15 years.
Mangala has a Master’s degree in Social Work. She organizes training programs on various subjects. She had the opportunity to study innovative education methods being used at the award winning Aksharnandan School in Pune.


Interested people can contact Mangala Joglekar
