Mother Tongue Program

 This program provides instruction mainly for students who already possess good oral and comprehension skills in the language and need to work on their reading and writing skills. 

We have classes in:

1* Additional classes: FRENCH THEATRE with Mrs. Isabelle Jonckeau-Kania  -  CHINESE “Drama, Dances & Songs”  with Mrs. Zhang Yi Ping and  SPANISH in Action and Hindi are introductory supplementary programs that make communication a natural, enjoyable and rewarding experience. Our goal is to encourage self-expression. Students have fun learning languages through music, songs, little plays, watching films in original language, games etc. For instance, in “Chinese Music & Drama” the students are introduced to basic Chinese (Mandarin) language and writing concepts through singing, staging mini drama, reciting poetry, and performing modern and traditional dances using fans, ribbons and streamers.

2* The Deutsche Sprachschule New York is offering German classes at UNIS on Saturday mornings. The school offers classes for students from kindergarten through high school.  For information & registration you may contact:  Mrs. Mady Palese at Tel & Fax # : (201) 592-7543 or Mrs. Valerie Weintraub at (718) 429-4922.

Please note that all classes are subject to enrollment.
