Lelu Connect 1-on-1
One-on-one time for your child to engage in conversation with a native-Spanish-speaking Maestra from Latinoamérica!
+ kid-favorite games and fun STEAM subjects
These are not your average classes
Connect 1-on-1 is about engaging kids in conversations about topics they can relate to and cultivating an environment that allows them to thrive - so learning Spanish doesn't feel like a chore.
Each month, a new theme will become the focus of your child's weekly sessions
Our Maestras choose themes and content that kids are excited about learning and talking about.
Changing the theme monthly keeps the content fresh, while also giving enough time for the kids to practice and meaningfully absorb the new language they're working with.
Vocab sheet
For each theme, our Maestras curate a list of key vocabulary and phrases that kids will be seeing and working with throughout their weekly sessions that month.
4 weekly sessions
During their sessions, kids will explore topics related to the monthly theme through conversation guides, games and more. Plus, your child's Maestra will expertly cater their sessions to your child.
Meaningful for kids
Content is centered on subjects that kids are naturally interested in and curious about, meaning not only will they form strong connections with the language, but they'll also apply and reinforce what they learned outside of Connect!
