We would like to give a huge shout-out to our Quechua Foreigner Teacher Nely!

Her students have been building their confidence in speaking Quechua through taking the "No English Challenge." This week, Nely brought in fruits and vegetables for students to simulate visiting the local fair in Chinchero, Cusco, Peru.

We are so grateful for all our teachers and their investment in students’ learning. Keep an eye out for our Fall 2024 schedule coming soon!
